Pouring Off Clear Water
Age 9 · Science
Open to everyone until Monday, October 26
To keep it, print it while it is open.
When muddy water is left to stand, the soil sinks and settles at the bottom. Then the clearer water on top can be poured slowly into another jar, leaving the soil behind.
In the picture
- Settled soil at the bottom of the first jar
- Cloudy water resting above the soil
- Clearer water collected in the second jar
Examples
- Pouring clear tea off the leaves that settled at the bottom of a cup
- Pouring clear broth off the vegetables that sank to the bottom of a pot
Key takeaways
- Leaving a mixture still lets heavy bits sink to the bottom.
- Pouring off the top liquid gently keeps the settled solid in the first container.
