Scientific Investigation

Today for science we made a scientific Investigation about candy and guessing.

The question was: Can I tell the flavour of a candy piece if I can't see it.

My prediction was: I will be able to get at least one guess right with guessing.

The materials I used were:  Candy pieces, A person, A piece of paper to put answers in, a blindfold.

Method:

1. Grab materials

2. Make a table on the piece of paper, write the guess, if you got it right or wrong, Taste, notes, and after you guess the colour and name of the flavour. 

3. Close your eyes and grab a piece of candy, take a first guess and keep your eyes closed.

4. Take a bite and take a final guess of the flavour. 

5. See if you got it right and right it down, carry on until you finish eating.

6. Write a conclusion

My conclusion: I found out that I had only gotten one wrong which is an achievement. It is just a game of luck and guess, you never know what it could be until you take a bite.

Science Term 2 - Chicken bones

What is bone made of?

Aim  To investigate the effect of acid on bone.

Method

1. Get four chicken bones

2. Cleaned all the pieces of leftover food off the piece of bone

3. Weighed all the pieces of bone

4. Put the bones in different containers

5. Put Water in one of them

6. Put acid in another

7. Put coke in another

8. Close the containers

9. Wait two weeks.

10. Check after two weeks and see what happened

Results

	Bone in Water	Bone in Acid	Bone in Coca Cola #1	Bone in Coca Cola #2
Observation	Smells really bad	Really bendy	Discoloured but not bendy	Discoloured but not bendy
Mass (g) Before	8g	9g	8g	8g
Mass (g) After	12g	8.8g	8.8g	9.8g
Difference in Mass	.4g	-.2g	.8g	1.8g

Conclusion

The bones have different weights and they all smell different. The water bone
and both bones in coke went up and weight, the acid went down in weight.
The coke bones had went a disgusting blackish brown colour. Coke didn't
properly work so had to try again.
