Celebrate Science - Water Water Everywhere or is it? - Science Show
We are all familiar with water; we see it every day. But in this interactive show we help you dive a little deeper, to think about what water is made from and all the amazing things it can do.

Time & Location
Nov 13, 2022, 11:00 AM – 5:00 PM GMT
Western Gateway Building , University College Cork, Western Rd, Mardyke, Cork, Co. Cork, Ireland
About the Event
From absorbing water effectively, to dissolving chemicals in it, you can squash, freeze and heat water to do all sorts of things. Its properties really are extraordinary.
Using lots of demonstrations and volunteers to help, our presenters will help you recognise and name properties of water – freezing, boiling, melting, condensing, dissolving and evaporating and will talk about the states of matter – solid, liquid and gas. They will illustrate how water has a chemical formula and how water and the objects in it are affect by forces – floating and sinking, gravity.
And be prepared to get wet! Audience members (especially teachers) may get a little wetter than they bargain for.
