Primary 4 carried out a science investigation<\/u> using 2 slices of apple and a 2 tomatoes. We wanted to discover what would happen if we mummified fruit.<\/p>\n
We mixed the salt and baking soda together, this was our natron. Natron draws water out of things and dries them up. This is why salty things make us thirsty.<\/p>\n
By drying something out, it doesn\u2019t have the moisture it needs for the rotting process, so it works as a preservative.<\/p>\n
We are excited to observe the changes that will take place and see if our predictions were correct.<\/p>\n
