Gummy Bear Osmosis 2

 Kia ora, Today is another day of learning about Gummy Bear Osmosis this time we are going to be looking at how they have changed over the time period of a week, We are mostly looking at how much  water has been absorbed and what effect that had on the water and the gummy its self.

Discussion:
1. The normal water was transformed into the gummy bear the most.
2.The dry gummy bear lost 0.11 grams over a week.
3. The sugar water was diffused faster than the salt water.

Diffusion Meaning: Diffusion is the movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Diffusion happens in liquids and gases because their particles move randomly from place to place. Diffusion is an important process for living things: it is how substances move in and out of cells.

Gummy Bear Osmosis

Kia ora,Today we are learning about Gummy Bear Osmosis. 

 Aim: I want to find out what happens to Gummy Bears when we put them into different soluttons.

Prediction: I predict that they will disolve into the solutions.

 Equipment: 
1. 4x Gummy Bears of the same colour 
2. 2x Petri dishes 
3. Paper towels 
4. Marker pen
5. Water 
6. Sugar water 
7. Salt water 
 8. Electronic balance 
9. Beaker 
10. Safety glasess 
 
Instructions: 
1. Get your equipment. 
2. Put on your safety glasess. 
3. Using the marker pen, Write the name of the condition on the petri dish. Dry, Water, Salt water and Sugar water. 
4. Weigh the Gummy Bear And write the weight on the petri dish.

Skittle art!

 Kia ora.

Today we are doing science and in science we are doing skittle art.

Aim: To use water to extract the dye from skittles using the process of chromatography.

Materials: 

1. Water.

2. Five skittles.

3.  Petri dish.

4. Beaker.

Process: 

Step 1. Place the skittles into the petri dish around the edges.

Step  2. Pour 50ml water gently into the middle of the petri dish.

Step 3. watch to see how fast the dye moves

Chromatography

 Kia ora.

Aim: Is to separate colours by using the processes of Chromatography.

Materials: 

1. Paper strip (Chromatography paper).

2. Felt pens

3. Ruler

4. Water 

5. Test tube rack 

First we get paper strips and measure 1 Cm then draw a reasonable sized dot on the paper next we get a test tube and fill the bottom with water now put the test tube in a test tube rack and put half of the dot in the water fold the top of the paper over the edge of the test tube and watch it expand.

The colour that changed the most was Blue .
I can see nine new colours.
The colour that travelled the furthest was Blue.

Using a Bunsen burner

 Aim: To demonstrate how to heat a liquid inside a test tube.

Equipment: Bunsen Burner, Heatproof mat, Lighter, Test tube tongs, Safety glasses.

Method:

1. Light the Bunsen burner.

2. Fill your test tube to approximately 5ml water.

3. Turn the collar at the Bunsen so it is a blue  flame 

 4. Holding the test tube tongs, Tilt the test tube on a 45 degree angle and place the bottom of the test tube into the flame ensure that the mouth  of the rest tube is not pointing towards anyone.

5. Gently wave the test tube in and out of the flame, Remember you are trying to heat the liquid gently.

6. Once the water starts to gently bubble, Take it away from the flame. Carefully pour the hot water into the sink.
