Absorbancy Observation



On Tuesday the 26th our class did a science investigation to see which fabric sample absorbed the most liquid. The fabrics we used were cotton, polyester, wool, silk and nylon. We had to use the same amount of liquid for each sample to make it a fair test. All the samples were the same size. The polyester sample absorbed the most liquid and silk absorbed the least.
