12. A Density Experiment That You Can Drink

You will need juices of different densities, a narrow glass, an eye dropper (or turkey type baster) for the number 12 on our list of cool experiments to do at home with household items.

Before you start, you need to know which juices are most and least dense. Now pour one of the juices to fill the glass up to 1 inch high. Use the dropper to slowly pour another juice so that it runs down the side of the glass. Will it go bellow or above the previous juice? Continue pouring different juices to determine whether they go down (the ones that are denser should go down) or remain on top. If juice simply mixes with another juice and doesn’t go anywhere, it means they have the same density. Now that you know the densities of different juices, you can create a colorful fun drink.
