Chromatography

What is chromatography? chromatography is when you use chemicals to extract the pigment.

Aim: Our aim is to extract pigments from the leaf.

Materials: boiling tube, filter paper, flint, boiling tube rack, pipet and pigment

Method:

1. We grind the leaf and add ethanol, then we extracted the pigment from it.
2. We cut a piece of filter paper then line it using pencil for about 2 cm.
3. We dropped about 2-3 ml of ethanol in the boiling tube then put the filter paper with a drop of pigment to it.
4. We then wait for the result.

Result:

The result of our experiment went pretty bad, we expected it to rise up and change colours but ours didn't and it just sank at the bottom.

Experiment 2

Aim: Our aim is to recreate the experiment we did by using felt pens that have a lot of pigments in it.

Materials: Test tube, filter paper, sellotape, splint, test tube rack, and felt pens.

Method:

1. Cut the filter paper into small thin strips.
2. Mark a dot about 2-3 cm from the bottom of the paper.
3. Put water on the test tube until the paper touches the water.
4. Wait for the result.

Result:

The result 

Distillation of coke

AIM: Our aim in this experiment is to separate as much sugar as possible in coke.

MATERIALS: Boiling tube, Bunsen burner, Test tube, Heatproof mat, Clamp stand, Coke, Ice, Beaker, Water, Glass straw and Rubber plug

METHOD:

• Get the bunsen burner and connect it to the gas tap
• Connect the boiling tube to the clamp stand
• Add the coke in the boiling tube and use the rubber plug to close the boiling tube
• Put the glass straw through the rubber plug and connect the other side at the boiling tube and test tube 
• Combine water with ice and put it in the beaker 
• Turn the bunsen burner and light it up with a match or a lighter
• Now boil the coke until you were left with the black gooey stuff inside your boiling tube.

Dilution Series

In Science, we made an experiment, we created dilution series.

Aim: Our aim in this experiment is to make the dark coloured liquid to light.

Materials: We used test tube, test tube rack, potassium permanganate, pipet, and cylinder

Conclusion/Observation: I expect that the colours would change pretty smooth as we take away 1 ml of solute in each test tube and add 9 ml of water. I 

Result: The result went pretty good but the colour went from a little bit dark to very light colour.

Key words in science

Soluble - something that can dissolve
Insoluble - something that cannot dissolve
Solute - solid that can dissolve
Solvent - a liquid that dissolves the solute
Solution - the mixture of solute and solvent
Dissolve - when large particles break into smaller pieces.
