ans2. A simple experiment for yourself! Take 100g of cotton cloth and 100g of woolen cloth, and then weigh them each, wet and dry. Write your answers down.

Cotton wool is raw cotton with major impurities removed, usually used for surgical dressings, tampons and so forth -- highly absorbent cotton.
Cotton wool -- absorbent cotton -- absorbs water, and would not shrink.

Cotton wool shrinks in water for two main reasons. 1. Cotton (and wool, silk, etc.) swell up when they come in contact with water because they absorb water. They subsequently shrink when the water is removed from them. This is called water regain. Cotton has the fifth highest water regain (with wool having the most). 2. When agitated, such as when hand/machine washed (much more apparent in machine washing), the cotton fibres are forced together, packing more closely, which gives the overall effect of shrinking the cotton.
