Science Experiment

Title - Gummy Worm Experiment
Purpose: What do you want to learn/find out?
I want to find out why and how the worm juice actually forms into the gummy worms.


Hypothesis: Try to predict the answer to the problem. Another term for hypothesis is ‘educated guess’. This is usually stated like ” If I…(do something) then…(this will occur)
I thought that the liquids would just sit on top of each other and they would barely have contact.

Materials: List everything you will need to conduct your experiment.
Small Eco Cup
Large Eco cup
Solution
Sodium Alginate originated from seaweed(Worm Juice) Red, Blue and Yellow.
Pipettes
Worm Activator
Calcium Chloride


Experiment procedure: The fun part! Design a test or procedure to confirm or disprove your hypothesis. Write down each step so that someone else could do the same experiment.
Step 1: Put Calcium Chloride in water then mix until all is dissolved

Step 2: When the water is ready you can pour or use your pipette to grab any color of worm Juice and watch the scientific magic happen

Step 3: Play with the non-edible gummy worms


Analysis/Data: Record what happened during the experiment.
The Sodium Alginate (Worm Juice) mixed with the water that had Calcium Chloride and then the Sodium Alginate would not only dye the water but also create non edible Gummy Worms.


Conclusion:Review the data and check to see if your hypothesis was correct.
My thought of the ending result was wrong, the outcome was a lot different than I thought it was going to be. I expected the two liquids to barely touch, I guess I might’ve had a better Idea of what it was gonna end like If I actually used the title of the experiment.

Writing Test

These three friends are expecting to have a nice 1 day hike through the beautiful wilderness of the New Zealand outdoors but they would’ve never know what was to come ahead. Tahupotiki, David and Aroha are all good friends considered family and they love being outdoors especially when it was summer, they would like to go out to Mt Tiratanga in Whangarei and walk up the great mountain Mt Tiratanga was so big that it could reach the clouds and that it takes 1 day and 5 hours to make it across the whole thing.


So once again on the 12th of May they were going up it once again but this time Aroha was going to bring her dog with her, and David didn't really like animals but
Tahupotiki said “It's just for one day then that's it”
“Fine Fine Fine one day” sighed David
Aroha had to catch a plane from Christchurch, and she also had to leave her Husband behind because this trek was very important to them and the reason why is because not only do they own the land but the also use to walk up it every week with their parents. Well now they do it every year on the same day and they would like to keep doing it.

They met at the bottom of the hill and once again Tahupotiki had the biggest bag, he is always trying to prove how strong he is with his big muscles, amazing silky brown hair and his amazing Nike shoes, they would always mock him for always trying to be cool. David was the complete opposite of Tahupotiki he was short skinny and had thick Blond hair resembling the sight of 2 minute noodles, and Aroha looked like both of them but was in the middle between Tahu and David she was skinny and Luscious hair that sparkled in the night.They all said their prayers blessed each other for the task ahead and then started there journey. Aroha’s dog was nice and calm the German Shepherd named Maui was nice and quiet but it would always like to jump on people from time to time.

They were halfway through when they knew that there waterfall was nearby couple more steps and they saw it the beautiful glistening water from up above they put their gear down and all David did was take his socks, shoes and jumped into the water Aroha quickly behind him and Tahupotiki still trying to take his shoes off once he managed that he jumped as high and he could and did the biggest bomb in the fresh water they spent about the next 2 hours in the water doing biggest bombs, who can hold their breath the longest and marco polo and even the dog joined in, the trek was meant to be 1 day and 5 hours but because they spend so much time doing other things it's more like 2 days for them.

But as they were drying off Dave went to change behind privacy but after a while he didn't come back Aroha and Tahupotiki were changed and they wondered where he was they didn't know if this was a joke so they were a little bit scared and all of a sudden Maui jumped up and started barking at one spot in the bush. Aroha put on her bag and so did Tahupotiki and they followed the dog wondering what he was barking at they followed the dog until they found Dave lying on the ground fully clothed, bruises.


They took him back to a picnic table and they got out the First Aid kit and bandaged up all his bruises. Then when he woke up he’d look like he saw something that no one should see. In some weird way he just randomly passed out again so Aroha carried his bag while Tahupotiki carried David and they went back down the mountain where they could get service and David has Thanked that dog ever since.
