Why is it feminine?
Expérience is feminine because it derives from Latin "experientia," which was a feminine noun (following the first declension pattern ending in -a), and French inherited this grammatical gender when the word evolved into its modern form. This -a ending in Latin systematically produced feminine nouns in Romance languages, which is why French words like "science," "patience," and "présence" are also feminine.
What is the French word for experiment?
