Water Filtration Bottle Experiment

Through class discussion and a water filtration experiment.

Water filtration bottle experiment. Build or have students build and validate conductivity testers if using prior to engaging in this activity. Be sure to use clean aquarium gravel and play sand. An empty bottle or other containers. We went to a little pond nearby to collect some water.

Again notice how the water. We carefully poured the same amount of water through each filter and observed the results. Place cotton balls cloth or a coffee filter inside the bottle as the first layer. You will need 2 liters of stream or river water or mix a handful of dirt into 2 liters of water 2 empty clear 1 liter plastic soda bottles 30 cotton balls a thumb tack a stick or skewer optional.

More ideas to try water filter science project. The first layer should be about one to two inches thick. Empty the bottle throw out the filter materials and wipe out the bottle. In the plastic cup start by lining the bottom with the coffee filters.

Management begin collecting empty matching 0 5 l bottles weeks or months in advance of this activity to save the cost of. You can simply make a bath bomb and see how water is the magic ingredient to trigger the reaction or do a science experiment exploring the effect of water temperature on bath bomb reactions. You will need a few supplies. Bath bombs or bath fizzies are the ultimate in bath time fun.

Cut off the bottom of an old plastic soda or juice bottle using scissors or a knife. Place the bottle upside down into the vase or tall drinking glass. See if you can make the filtered water even cleaner. Pour swamp water in the 2 liter bottle with a lid.

2 glass jars sand gravel 3 4 coffee filters dirty water a plastic cup with a hole cut in the bottom. We set up coffee filters containing sand stones and then just plain filters. Begin by getting a jar full of dirty water. They are also an exceptional chemistry experiment.

The filtration methods used in this activity are a simple demonstration and the water should. Pour the water into the bottle with its top cut off. Then pour the water back and forth between the two cups. How to do the water filtration experiment.

Put the lid on the bottle and shake vigorously for 30 seconds.
