Hello I hope you are having a lovely day today! Today while the year sevens were at tech we looked at the capillary effect and made a slide about it in this slide you will find Equipment my beforehand prediction the Method and The science behind the experiment. There wasn't really a hard part of this task because I LOVE science so sorry if some of the slides are a little hard to understand. I hope this post inspires you to do it or do your own experiment to help get more people into science. I hope you enjoy this post!
