Best Answer

Most likely the solution is water and salt. The salt in the water causes the celery to pull water out of itself to try and even out the salt to water concentration. This causes the celery to wilt.

The solution is made up of water and salt. The water in the celery is pulled out by the salt from the solution to even out the concentration of the salt and water. This makes the celery wilt.

Why does raw celery make the mouth feel numb?

For years people have recognized the natural effects of celery in "calming the nerves." Celery. In fact in the 1897 Sears Catalog the company offered a nerve tonic made from celery. And before that Hippocrates (the father of medicine) noted that celery calms the nerves. Celery is high in calcium and it is widely recognized for its medicinal effects. Most likely the numbing effect you're noticing is from the Eugenol in the celery. It is the same compound found in higher concentrations in cloves.

How long does it take the celery to absorb food coloring?

It depends on how much food coloring you are trying to absorb, and how big the celery is. If you have a small stick of celery and a lot of food coloring, it will most likely take about a week or so for the celery to completely absorb the food coloring. When the color of the water and the color of the celery switch places, it is fully absorbed. I will be doing this experiment myself to see how long in days, minutes, and seconds it takes, but if you have any more questions, try it!
