Magic Pepper Experiment

- Shallow plate - Water - Black pepper flakes - Dish soap

Materials Needed:

Sprinkle pepper flakes on a plate of water and notice how they float on top and spread out.

Step 1

Next dip your finger in dish soap and touch the center of the plate. Watch the pepper flakes move to the edge.

Step 2

When dish soap is added it lowers the surface tension of the water and the water wants to spread out and as the water flattens on the dish it carries the pepper flakes to the edge.
