5. Why does a lump of cotton wool shrink in water?

Answers

Answered by nunnabhavanisrini

Answer:

A lump of cotton wool has a lot of air trapped inside the space present in its fibers. When this lump of cotton is immersed in water, all the air is replaced by water. Due to this, the cotton lump shrinks down.
