Solid Water - BAT7235 - Alligators help you learn about chemistry in this fun kit. The included alligator grows and grows inside the test tube when you add water.
Enjoy some hands-on learning fun as you measure and keep track of the alligator's growth.
The incredible secret is the science of superabsorbent polymers that absorb many times their weight in water. You'll learn more about these incredible molecules as you explore the special Water Gel™ powder. Just a pinch of powder turns water into a solid gel.
You'll also learn about evaporation as you watch the alligator shrink back to his original size when exposed to air.
