Science Activity - Water and its freezing point
|
- Take two ice cubes, a thin thread strong, a bowl of water and few salt.
- This experiment will make you hold the ice with the thread.
- Place the ice cubes in the bowl of water.
- Now place the thread on the ice cubes so that it touches both the ice cubes.
- Try to lift the thread. The thread will come alone without the ice cubes.
- Now place the thread on the ice cubes, so that it touches both the ice cubes.
- Now sprinkle salt on the thread and the ice cubes.
- Leave it for few minutes.
- The salt will decrease the temperature and the make the water near the ice cube and the thread to freeze.
- After few minutes , try to take the thread.
- You could see the ice cubes also coming along with the thread.
- The salt reduces the temperature and hence the water freezes near the ice cubes which makes the thread and the ice freeze together.
- This simple experiment explains the science of water and its freezing point.
