Detailed explanation-1: -There is a common misconception that water does not have the necessary surface tension to maintain a bubble and that soap increases it, but in fact soap decreases the pull of surface tension-typically to about a third that of plain water.

Detailed explanation-2: -When you add the dishwashing liquid, toothpaste or glass cleaner to the water it breaks up the surface tension. The water molecules, however, want to stick together and maintain that tension, so they move away from the soap, carrying the pepper with them!

Detailed explanation-3: -Things You’ll Need For The Pepper And Soap Experiment The Pepper and Soap Experiment is really simple, all you need are dish soap, water, and some black pepper. These are simple ingredients that you can easily find in your kitchen or pantry.

Detailed explanation-4: -Paper boats float based on the principle of buoyancy, which is the same principle that explains why anything floats. The boat is buoyant when the weight of the amount of water it displaces is greater than the weight of the boat itself.
