Answers
To compare the water absorbing capacity of nylon (synthetic) and cotton (natural) fabrics.
Things needed :- one piece of cotton (cloth half a metre square), one piece of night in cloth (half a square metre) and two equal size of mugs and water.
Method :-
1.Take two mark each containing the same amount of water in it.
2.Take two piece of cloth one nylon and other cotton of the same size.
3. Soak each piece of the cloth in water taken in different mugs.
4. Take the pieces of both the clothes from the water.
5. Observe and compare the volume of water remaining in each mug.
Observation :- The volume of the container from which the nylon cloth was removed is more than the volume of water remaining in the container from which the cotton cloth cloth was removed.
Conclusion :- Synthetic fabrics absorb less water than the natural fabrics.
