Project requirement: how does color affect light absorption?

Post by deleted-354660 »

I am a 6th grader doing this project:

It says I should use quart jars. I found the perfect shaped jars but they hold only 3 cups. My mom thinks that is ok. Do you agree?

Hi SophiaBabbitt4,

Yes, I agree. Jars that hold 3 cups should work fine for this project.

I hope this helps and good luck with your project. Please post again if you have more questions.
