my iPad was dropped in my sink by my brother, which basically, fried it. The audio doesn’t work, unless it’s a notification. Silica gel won’t work. What should I do?

Water and electronics do not make happy bedfellows. Your iPad is not designed to be water resistant. While it may survive being splashed with water if immediately dried, it will almost certainly suffer irreparable damage if submerged.
You would be best advised to take your iPad along to the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to assess your iPad. If repair isn’t possible, the iPad can be responsibly recycled - and you’ll be in the best possible place to explore possible replacement:

This was likely catastrophic.
Either try this or simply purchase a replacement iPad.
