Conclusion

·         What did you notice while using each ingredient?

·         Why do you think this occurred (use scientific language)?

·         Did everything go well during the lab? If no, what would you change next time?

 

 

1. I noticed that even though all of the ingredients were different it still increased the density of the water until the water was more dense then the egg causing it to float.

2. I think this occurred because the ingredients increased the density until the water became more dense then the egg causing it to float.

3. No everything did not go well in the lab because a past student from Fairhaven school came to help and talk to Mr.Catton and he broke an egg and it splattered everywhere.
