Salt and water experiment.


The Plan.

Task 1; Read the question carefully and write the answer to these questions. 

  1. What do we need to find out? We need to find out how much salt we need to use to make the water freeze.
  2. How will we find it out?we will do a couple of experiments during the night to find this out.
  3. How will we record what we find?We will get four cups fill one with just water fill one with half a teaspoon then fill one with one teaspoon then fill the last one with two teaspoons and then let them sit in the freezer over night then check in the morning what happened 
  4. What equipment do we need for the experiment?We will need water four cups salt and a freezer.
  5. How long will it take?It will take one night.

The Procedure

Task 2: What are the steps that you will take to make the experiment? 

List them in 6 steps.

Step 1;Get four cups.
Step 2:fill the first cup with just water then fill the next one with half a teaspoon fill the third one with one teaspoon and finally fill the last one with two teaspoons of salt.
Step 3:Now put them in the fridge.
Step 4:Leave them over night to settle
Step 5:grab them out of the freezer and measure what happened
Step 6:

The Process

Task 3: Draw on a piece of A4 paper the 6 steps that you will use to test the amount of salt in water before freezing. When we are making drawings in science  it needs to be labelled clearly, kept tidy and named. Once you have completed the drawing it must be photographed and uploaded to your blog.

In your drawing you will use:
  1. Beakers
  2. Water
  3. Measuring spoons or cups
  4. Salt

Dirty water experiment.

What is filtration?


Filtration is separating solids from liquids by adding a medium through which only the liquid can pass. 

Examples are:

  1.  Tea bags
  2. Coffee plunger/coffee filter 
  3.  Swimming pool
  4. Kidney

Materials

1.Dirty water
2.bottle
3.sand 
4.pebbles
5.filter papers
6.funnel
7.scissors
8.cups
9.coffee filter

Process - ( use verbs or doing words in each step )


Step 1

Cut the bottle in half.

Step 2

Put the top half upside down into the other half of the bottle.

STEP 3

Add layers of filter paper then add your sand and pebbles.

STEP 4

Get 1 cup of dirty water.

STEP 5

Pour dirty water into to the filter in the upside down bottle.

Measurements

After my group had done all of the instructions we watched our water enter the bottom bottle. It entered really fast but did not make the water clean enough to be able to drink it.

Baking soda/Vinegar Reaction.

Baking soda /vinegar

Two weeks ago 78tz and 78bh watch our science teacher pour baking soda and vinegar into a cup and
we saw the chemical reaction and I'm going to tell you all the steps to succeed while doing this experiment.

Here are all of the equipment you'll need to do this experiment:Baking soda,Vinegar,2x cups and a measuring cup.

First you need to get a cup and place it on a stable and level place.

Then you need to measure how much baking soda you need I'd recommend two teaspoons.

Tip that baking soda in the cup.

Now you'll need to measure how much vinegar you need to make the reaction I'd recommend one tablespoons.

Then Tip that in the cup then you will hopefully see a fizzy reaction and that's how you make baking soda and vinegar react.

Passion Project.

Hi  I'm Bryce.
So this morning we made a little more progress for our little stone carving.
I've just started sanding my Koru its looking pretty good so far,I'm nearly finished and when I'm finished I'm going to look up a couple of meanings for a Koru then when I've found some information I will be put into a group then we can make a big Koru with my group.

Passion project

Hi i'm Bryce.
Hornby year 7,8,9,and year 10  have started a activity that will be continued for the next four weeks every Monday and Thursday, on Thursday we have passion project every period, and on Monday we have passion project every period other than period one and period two.
I've started on my stone sculpture I'm doing a koru .The whole group are making a small sculpture to get better, then we can get into groups and make a big sculpture to put around the school but that will be happening in a couple of weeks so we can get some practise with the carving.
