You Can Make Water Grow!

 

When water gets cold enough it turns into a solid. Then we call it ice. Do you want to see water grow?

You Will Need:

What To Do:

  1. Clean out the milk carton.
  2. Fill the carton all the way to the top with water and staple the top of the carton shut.
  3. Put the full carton of water in the freezer overnight.
  4. The next morning, check out the carton full of ice.

Results:

Is your carton full of ice - or more than full? Does the frozen or solid water take up more space that the water you started with? When water freezes it expands, or takes up more space than it did as a liquid.
