Scientists have created a solar-powered sponge that transforms seawater into drinkable water using microscopic channels and ...

Most of the water on Earth is salty ocean water—not suitable for drinking. While desalination plants can remove the salt and make seawater drinkable, they use a lot of energy and expensive equipment.

Researchers have developed a sponge-like material with long, microscopic air pockets that uses sunlight and a simple plastic ...

Looking at the readings on the beaker, with the mass in the boat the water is at 670 milliliters (which is 670 cm 3). When the mass is put in the water, it drops to 560 mL for a change of 110 mL.

Most of Earth's water is in the oceans and too salty to drink. Desalination plants can make seawater drinkable, but they ...
