Now it s time to race.
Liquid marbles experiment.
If you want to save and reuse the liquids you use from the activity make sure you thoroughly wash your marbles and drinking glasses with soap and water then dry them completely.
If you kept all of your marbles and containers clean throughout the experiment and avoided cross contamination of liquids you may be able to store them for regular use.
As you ll see there s more to this experiment than meets the eye.
In our experiment the marbles took longer to sink when dropped into the jars filled with corn syrup and honey than they did when dropped into the jars filled with water and cooking oil.
Liquid marble s progressive deformation determined by increasing compression forces.
Explain that for this experiment we are going to do a marble race and drop marbles into each of the liquids.
Ask the kids to each take a marble and hold it over the opening of one of the liquids.
The more viscous or thick a liquid is the longer it will take for an object to move through the liquid.
In other words they vanish like magic.
It is assumed that liquid marbles.
Repeat the experiment up to this step starting from preparing the graduated cylinder to measure the viscosity of each liquid for each of the remaining test liquids.
