Beads float in water because they have a lower density than water. The buoyant force acting on the beads is greater than the force of gravity pulling them down, causing them to float on the surface of the water.

How do water beads work and what makes them expand when they come into contact with water?

Water beads are small, non-toxic polymer beads that can absorb and hold a significant amount of water. When water beads come into contact with water, they absorb the water through osmosis, causing them to expand in size. The polymer beads have a structure that allows them to swell and retain the water, making them useful for decorative purposes or as a way to provide moisture to plants.


Why do crystal beads react to the water that they come up to grow bigger?

Crystal beads grow bigger when they come into contact with water due to a process called hydration. Water molecules are absorbed by the crystal beads, causing them to swell and increase in size. This interaction between the water molecules and the crystal beads results in the expansion of the beads.


Is water added to glass beads reversible or irreversible?

YES! Because when you heat the mixture of water and glass beads up at boiling temperature, the water will evaporate and leave the glass beads behind. =-)
