About This Product
Because every piece has the same volume, weighing them shows at once how density differs from metal to metal. The set is also heated and dropped into water in specific heat experiments, and used to compare how quickly different metals conduct heat. Enquiries from France, Malaysia, Guinea, Peru, Fiji and Madagascar for the Metals Set of 10 receive an export quotation.
