Science Reflection.

This term we started our new science programme. We have had to plan a whole science experiment, and when we have wrote out the instructions we can do the experiment. In my group we have me, Cayden and Matthew. It only took us a couple of days to plan it because we really wanted to do the experiment so we tried to do our work fast. We had to make an infographic to show our work in photos.

last week after technology we ate our lunch and then we started our experiment. We wanted to make hot ice. so we got our stuff and we put 4 Tablespoons of baking soda into a pot and then add 4 cups of white vinegar into a pot slowly. we had to have it on half heat for an hour. It felt like it took days for it to be done. The instructions we read said to take it off the heat when its boiled down to 3/4 of a cup or less. The dreaded hour was over and it looked like less than a cup so we put the stuff in a measuring cup but our calculations were wrong. There was 2 cups left so we kind of failed because it probably wouldn't work if we put it back on the heat. We put it in the fridge until it cooled so we can try it out. We tried to make the ice tower like on the photos and it didn't work so we were so angry.

Now we can try to do another experiment so we wanted to try it again. We realized what we did wrong so we can try to prevent it from happening again. We had the heat too high and we didn't leave it long enough.
