Climograph

This is my climograph

Three weeks since Experiment- Photos

I do not know i you guys can see it but in this bleach solution there some powdery blue spots forming on the copper pipe.

The liquid in the Vinegar solution has turned a shade of blue. I think this means that the copper is dissolving

Real Experiment Photos

I stored my cups in empty chocolate boxes so that they wouldn't fall easily. They looked more protected. And the boxes have been stored in the cubby spaces of my shelf. So its all good. Nothing has tipped over or fallen over yet. Yeah

This is my Scientific scale it meausres point of a gram. How awesome is that. Now I sound like a science geek. Oh well I've said more embarassing things in my life

The equipment that I used






- White King Bleach






- Lemon juice






- Vinegar






- Neurofen dropper - to get the exact amount






- Tablespoon measurer






- Scale that measure milligrams

Problemo Photos

Look the Washing powder will not dissolve in the water either

Crap look the Bi carbonate poder will not dissolve and mix in the water.

Trial experiment photos

This is what the copper pipe looked like in a week.
It has become brown

This is the trial bi carb solution. When I put mixin spoon in ti it felt so heavy

This is the trial expeirment with my vinegar solution.The Solution turned into a blueish colour in 3 days. Well, I did put alot of vinegar

My Maginificant Methods - hey looks its alliteration

So My new experiment is the 4 different solutions
water and lemon juice
water and vinegar
water and bleach
just Water
I've started my experiment and I'm going to upload some pictures
I said that before didn't i
Okay well I followed this method
1. Using a tablespoon, three tablespoons of lemon juice was poured into a clear cup
2. Using the tablespoon, three tabllespoons of water was poured into the same cup
3. In a different cup three tablespoons of bleach was poured
4. In that same cup three tablespoons of water was poured.
5. In a different cup 3 tablespoons of vinegar and 3 tablespoons of water poured
6. In another different cup 6 tablespoons of water was poured in a cup.
7. The cups were labelled with the different solutions and the above steps were repeated 3 more times.
8. The Copper pipe was cut into sections of 5 cm lengths
9. Each of copper sections' weight was measured and recorded
10. one section of copper pipe was placed in each cup full of solution
11. The above steps were repeated 3 times

So thats the method I followed and after four weeks I am going to again measure the weight of the copper pipe sections and see the percentage difference in weight. I'm not sure which pipes will gain or lose weight

It's now been almost 3 weeks

From my observations the cup full fo vinegar has turned blue. I think is because the copper is disolving.

The cups with the bleach solution have not changed colours but the copper pipes are get these blue solid powder spots. It looks like mutated chicken pox.

I can't even see the copper pipe the lemon solution

The pipe in the just water doesn't look like its made any physcial changes

I am going to upload the picture in 15 minutes

Major Problemo

So in the holidays me and my dad went to BUnnings. OMG never go to Bunnings with your dad. We were only supposed to get a copper pipe and a saw and we ended up with also 3 large pots for the garden, fertiliser, a new hose and new plants. Far out!!!!!
Well My dad finally finished cutting the copper pipes and I have 16 which is more than enough and each are 5cm. So they weigh around 15grams. The scale is pretty cool you can like weigh your rubber and stuff.
Well since i had four extra pipe sections I did a little trial you know to see if this would really work. So I made two extremely concentrated solutions for two pipes. One solution was practically made of 1 part water and 7 parts vingear and the solution was 2 parts water and 6 parts bi carbonate
Well obviously the bicarbonbate didn't dissolves but i thought when I do the actually quantities I would be fine
So i left the pipes in the solutions over night and the copper in the Bi carbonate soda changed from a copper colours to a brown colour and the Copper in the vinegar solution didn;t change colour by the soluation changed from clear to blue. I guess these were obvious signs that something was happening

So I started the real experiment with the washing powder, bicarbonate and vinegar
Major issue the bicarbonate and washing powder wouldn't dissolve in the little water and would just end up sinking to the bottom. THis wasn't going to work. My dad then suggested to put make more than half the solution water but then Ms Zhand said earlier that if their was alot of water results might not show

So I've now decided to screw the bicarbonate powder and dish washing powder. I am going to replace them with lemon juice and washing liquid. How smart am I. Liquid will obviously have no trouble mixing with another liquid. But I can't start the experiment till tomorrow. I still have to get Ms Zhang's ok and my dad still hasn't gone shopping.

Anyway This will take around 4 week to 5 weeks so I should be done by week6 which is 3 weeks before the major report is due which isn't too bad. I hope these copper pipes rust or show some change

Anyway byeee
