Water + Mandarin Experiment By Ivan

Water + Mandarin Experiment

 

Materials:

  1. A bucket of water
  2. A mandarin

 

Method: fill a bucket with water and put mandarin in and see what happens.

 

My experience: So first we put the mandarin in the water and it was struggling to float(it still did though). Next we peeled the mandarin and put it in. It sank to the bottom like a rock. Then we put the peels in and they floated. Then my friends put the piece onto the peel and put it in the water it floated. I found out that for mandarins the skin is what keeps the buoyant.
