Science Experiment

Lo1: Design and carry out an experiment
Lo2: Explain separation via filtration

Experiment:

- We separated mud from water by using only the equipment given.

• Cotton balls
• Plastic bottle
• Paper towel
• Fabric/cloth
• String
• Plastic cups

Steps:

Step 1: We made our plan then discuss it in our group. First, we got our equipment and we only have to use the equipment given by the teacher 

Step 2: We cut the top of the plastic bottle 

Step 3: We cut the cloth in half

Step 4: We Put the paper towel and the cotton ball together and repeated it seven times

Step 5: Then we put the cloth at the top of the plastic cup.

Step 6: We put it also at the opening of the plastic bottle

Step 7: We Tied them together with a string

Step 8: Then we put the cup of muddy water in

Step 9: Then we wait

Observation/Conclusion:

Our water filtration design worked pretty well, it went pretty clear, it also doesn't have any big dirt bits in it.

The colour of our water is almost clear, although there is still a small amount of yellowish stuff on the purified water by 3%.

The materials we used such as the cloth, the paper towel, the cotton balls and the
