Summary: During this week, we talked about osmosis

(the movement of water molecules across the membrane - from low concentration to high concentration). Then each table (we have 8 tables) were
given an egg to pour a liquid in. Our team (table 3) decided to pour in MTN Dew, a yellow-green liquid. The egg kept rolling around in the liquid and the egg was floating as well! It was also extremely acidic-looking and the egg was constantly covered in bubbles, except for the top, because we didn't pour in enough of the MTN Dew to cover the egg.


SP3: Planning and carrying out investigations: Did you plan and carry out an investigation? Yes, I did carry out an investigation (with the rest of our table) when we dunked our egg in MTN Dew. First, we wrote down our egg's starting weight. Then we put it in MTN Dew. Finally, we wrote down a table and observed our egg. All we have to do now is write down the egg's end weight and answer a few more questions.

Late! Project Blog Post

Image
This is a picture of our Charity Fair Project Summary: What I learned was about our Carbon Footprint. A carbon footprint is the amount of carbon dioxide emitted due to the consumption of fossil fuels by a particular person or a group.  Backward-Looking: To be honest, I really didn't know much about a Carbon Footprint. It wasn't until my teacher explained to us what a carbon footprint was until I really started to understand. If my teacher didn't explain what a carbon footprint was, and someone came up to me and asked, "I know what a carbon footprint is. Do you?" Then I'd probably be all like, "What on earth is a carbon footprint?" Inward-Looking: I thought that the carbon footprint was a bit too complicated for me, but I managed it with the help of my other teammates. I don't really understand why I would dislike some parts because it seemed fine to me.   Outward-Looking:  The grade I would give myself is an ...
