How To Make Snow At Home
Hi Friends, Welcome to Tech. So we're gonna show you how to make snow. We can play with it on our hands. That's the video we're gonna make. So for that, I've a powder with me. It is Sodium Polyacrylate. The specialty of the powder is that it has water absorbing power. It absorbs water and turns like snow. This is a powder. With this we're gonna make fake snow. Since in December it's Christmas, in foreign countries, it'll snow there. But there is no snow here. So for the kids to play there is no snow right. This might be a solution for that. Let's see how it's made. We're starting the experiment. This container is 500g purchased online for 200 rupees. We're gonna make snow with this. We're take a little of this. We don't need more. You can see that we've taken this much. We can put it inside a beaker now. Let's put it in. To convert it into snow, we need to pour water into it. We've just poured in water. Let's see what happens.
We need to wait for few seconds. Let's see how much time it is taking. I'm not cutting it to show you the timing. We can see that. We just added few powder and it has converted to snow. If we wait for a while, we can see crystals forming as well. Okay, so our snow is ready. Hope you can see this. This is the snow which we made. The snow which is made by adding water in Sodium Polyacrylate. We've just added only this much powder but see how much snow we've got. The specialty of Sodium Polyacrylate is that it has more water absorbing power. It'll absorb the water in it and forms like snow. See, it doesn't stick to our hands. See it's awesome. If we setup Christmas crib, we can add these and kids can play. Take care of children not consuming it. It might expand like this when inside mouth. Guidance is required for kids when using this. It has got a snow feel. Next what we're gonna do is, we've taken Sodium Polyacrylate in our hands and add water. Let's see how much water it can absorb. See it's expanding. Let's see how much it expands. According to the water we add, it is expanding. The quantity is getting higher.
I've added more than what I can hold of. We can add more water to it, it will still expand. Pour some water in. See how much it will expand. The water is not flowing outside. The water whichever we poured has turned to snow. Our jug only had that much water, if we keep on adding it'll become big. Se next up, we're gonna make more snow. For that we're gonna transfer the whole container of Sodium Polyacrylate to this big vessel. We've emptied the container now. We've added only this much. Now we can pour water in it. I've brought a bucket of water now. We can transfer the water to that vessel. So in the vessel we took, we've poured water. Let's wait for a while to set. We need to give some time to convert to snow. Let's wait. It has started to happen, we can feel it when we dip our hand in. It will expand now. See! It converted to snow and is expanding. We're giving some time for crystal formation. Then it'll be good to see. I think it's almost ready. It wont be good to see now. We can put it down in this sheet. Very heavy! Awesome! Come here. See! Awesome snow.
Come closer and show. We've got nice snow even if there snowfall here. That snow will melt but not this. This is not much chemical, doesn't harm when you touch with hands. These are used in baby diapers. Not harmful for skin. Nothing will happen when you touch it. That's why they add it in diapers. We can put it in our Christmas crib. To increase the quantity of snow, we can just add more water in it. I'm gonna pour one more bucket of water. When I pour, even though it splashes away, the water won't go waste, it will absorb all. Let it form. To convert into snow, it take some time. See, the quantity got increased. See, the quantity got increased. If we pour one more bucket, we'll get more. We're putting the snow on the table. For thumbnail picture. It's like a gel. With 500g, we've made this much snow. If we pour more water, it will expand again.
Hope you all liked today's blog. For this Christmas, we can add this in crib as it is available in near by chemical shops. To get it easily, if we spend 10 rupees, we'll get a baby diaper. Just tear it down and you can get powder to make this much snow. If you're going to chemical shop, you need to ask for Sodium Polyacrylate. This is very cheap and for 100 rupees we can make this amount of snow.
