Exploding Science!

In 5M we have been doing a an experiment about how the different liquids affect the evaporation rate. Our question was how does the type of liquid affect the time it takes to evaporate.

EQUIPMENT

• Lemonade


• Water


• Gel


• Milk


• Candles (x4)


• Candle Holders(x4)


• Lighter
  Heat Proof Mat


• Measuring Jug


• Foil Trays

METHOD

1. First, you get four different type of liquid. Lemonade, water, gel, and milk.
2. Then, you get 4 candles and 4 candle holders, and 1 heatproof mat, 4 measuring jugs.
3. After, you get a lighter or matches, you pour the liquids inside the measuring jugs. And get foil trays, you pour the liquids inside the foil trays and place on the candle holder.
4. Afterwards put the candle under the candle holders.
5. Start the stop watch as soon as you place the candle under.
6. Finally observe in case of one of them evaporate.

RESULTS

We found out, that the type of liquid does affect the evaporation rate.
