Michael King Lab

Information of Michael King’s lab sheet can state two conclusions. The first conclusion that can be stated from information of the lab is water seeped through some of the oil. The density of the water was 1.1 g/mL and the soap was 1.446 g/mL, the soap was clearly denser than water. For proof that the water seeped through the soap Michael King’s observation sheet of water stated: “The water is leaking down into the soap, but still sits on top of the dish soap.” Later through his observations it elaborates, “The cooking oil sits on top of the water, but the water is still seeping through the soap.” This is inconsistent to King’s predictions because he did not include that the water will seep through in his predictions. The second conclusion that can be pulled from King’s lab information is that the water seems to be the only liquid that seeped through another liquid.
The reason behind it is unknown; perhaps it’s a reaction between the water and oil. This might be inconsistent with his predictions because he didn’t not think that the water would be the only liquid to leak through or have a reaction with the oil if that’s the case. Errors that would affect King’s final results would be that water didn’t “perfectly” sit on top of the dish soap, in result King couldn’t write that every liquid perfectly sat on top of each in his conclusion. This cannot be documented because the water seeped through into the dish soap, this gives the information that the water technically did not stay on
