And today I'm here to talk to you about buoyancy.
Buoyancy is the ability of an object to float in water.
We're gonna do that by making raisins dance, Grab a glass of club soda and a handful of raisins.
Plop three raisins into the club soda and they'll sink, but then they'll rise.
They become buoyant when the carbon dioxide bubbles attach to that raisin and lift it up to the top.
But when the bubbles pop, the raisin's density increases and it sinks back down.
Have fun.
