▶️ How to make fake snow with sodium polyacrylate:
Step 1: Using a scale, measure out 30 grams of sodium polyacrylate.

Step 2: Add the sodium polyacrylate to a 400 mL beaker.

Step 3: Stir in 400 mL of distilled water. Observe how the mixture changes.

▶️ How the fake snow experiment works:
The small amount of sodium polyacrylate absorbs every drop of water. Sodium polyacrylate is considered a super absorbing polymer because its molecular structure allows it to absorb 800x its own weight in water. Sodium polyacrylate is what most commercial diapers use to absorb moisture.
