No, a gummy bear will not grow as significantly in salt water as it does in fresh water Pour ÂĽ cup (60 ml) of water into bowls 1, 2 and 3 While it will still absorb some water due to osmosis, the presence of salt drastically reduces the amount of water that enters the gummy bear, hindering its growth.

After the bears go into the water (or salt water, or sugar water), do not allow your child to eat them
Bacteria could start growing in the water as the bears soak, making them unsafe to eat.
Gummy bears grow in salt water due to osmosis, a process where water molecules move from an area of high concentration (the gummy bear) to an area of low concentration (the salt water) to achieve equilibrium This influx of water dilutes the salt water and causes the gummy bear to expand. When gummy bears are soaked in water the bear will swell and grow in size The sugar molecules try to spread and dissolve but they can’t get out of the gelatin so they expand resulting in the gummy bear expanding
Will have a similar result to water. In this candy science experiment, we compared gummy bears left in water to those placed in salt water To get started, we needed to make about a cup of supersaturated salt water solution So, we added salt, a little bit at a time, to a cup of boiling water until no more salt dissolved.
When a gummy bear is immersed in a salt solution, the water inside the bear moves out into the solution
This loss of water causes the gummy bear to shrink and become firmer The amount of salt in the solution directly influences the rate of water loss and, consequently, the size of the gummy bear. Gummy bears are a popular sweet treat enjoyed by people of all ages They come in various flavors, colors, and sizes, making them a fun and delicious snack
But have you ever wondered what would happen if you put a gummy bear in salt water Will it grow, shrink, or stay the same? When you place the gummy bear in salt water, the water molecules inside the gummy bear begin to move outwards towards the salt water, causing the gummy bear to shrink and wrinkle up. Show your kids the power of diffusion by making their favorite gummy bear candies grow bigger or smaller with this fun experiment
Mark each bowl with a number from 1 to 4
