Acknowledgements
I would like to thank my family for all of their support also I would like to thank all of my teachers for all of the encouragement and most of all I would like to thank god for keeping me calm with all the stress I had. Abstract The purpose of my project is to explain the processes of the water cycle, explain what it is, and to show the process of evaporation and what happens during this process.my procedure consist of placing the small container in the middle of the large , clear bowl. Fill the bowl with a little water, being careful not to fill the small container inside. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and fasten the plastic wrap around the rim of the bowl with your rubber band or string. Put a weight on top of the plastic wrap in the center. Now put your contraption on a windowsill or somewhere that the sun will hit it.The heat of the sun evaporated which raised, condensed on the cool plastic, and fell into the small container. This small scale replica of the water cycle that occurs every day on earth. I learned that the water cycle is also called the hydrologic cycle and that many process of the water cycle go on in my household everyday which helps me better understand the water cycle. If I did this project again I probably would test and see if the water evaporates faster under sun light or light from a light bulb faster. The Water Cycle
Hello! My name is Kameron Boler and my project is about the water cycle. I had a lot of trouble coming up with an idea for my science fair project all I knew was I wanted to do something involved with chemistry so I chose to construct a mentosMentos soda volcanoe . volcano. So I built my volcanoevolcano with the home made plaster I made and after a few days my volcanoevolcano broke and when I went on the internet to get more info on my project I found out I was doing my project all wrong. After calming down I decided to do my project on one of my favorite science topics the “water

    The project will involve the testing of three different water temperatures. One at hot tap water, one at cold tap water, and ice water. 1 cup of water at each temperature will be poured into the same glass, and have its temperature recorded. After doing so each water temperature will go through five trials with one Alka-Seltzer tablet being dropped into the glass each time, recording how long it takes for the tablet to dissolve.…

    To begin this experiment a water bath was assembled using a 100 mL beaker, and filling it half way with cool tap water. Then, crushed ice was placed in the remainder of the beaker just below the top. Salt was finally added to the beaker and the solution was stirred well. After, a test tube was filled with distilled water, and the temperature was recorded every 30 seconds until the temperature reading was steady for five consecutive 30…

    Lab nine, the home meteorology lab, is a hands-on experiment that will allow me to use real world items to experience and observe condensation in my own home. There will be a graph that will include the information regarding the experiment such as 1) the room temperature of standing water 2) the dew point temperature of the standing water, and 3) the result of relative humidity. Through this lab, I will learn how the changes in temperature can cause condensation to occur and how it affects relative humidity.…

    1. Create a product that illustrates the groundwater cycle, including what happens at each point in the process. I made a product called lawn miracle . The product is tubes that spread out rain water throughout the yard that parts that need it . 1st step is you set it up to the parts were you want it to stream 2nd you wait until it rains . 3rd it rains and then the water sit on the grass for a little bit makes sure you check it .if you don’t the water could be stored in puddle and your grass could get over watered. If you let it a puddle 2 things could happen 1 it could be stored in the aquifer 2 it could be evaporated by sun . 4th after that do this for like 1 week and you will see the difference in your grass . What happens in this product is when the rain go it rehydrate you grass which turns yellow to green and then water that is on the grass is called groundwater .it stored in the aquifer ,lakes ,ocean and river .…

    The chemicals were all sealed and circulated inside a sterile array of glass tubes and flasks connected together in a loop, with one flask half-full of liquid water and another flask containing a pair of electrodes. The liquid water was heated to add water vapour into the chemical mixture and the gases that were formed circulated around the apparatus, mimicking the Earth 's atmosphere. The flask with heated water represented water on the Earth 's surface and the recycled water vapor reenacted the water that evaporates from lakes and seas, before going into the atmosphere and becoming into rain. Sparks were fired between the electrodes to mimic lightning storms (which were believed to be common on the early earth) through the water vapors, and then the vapors were cooled again so that the water could condense (which simulated the oceans) and trickled back into the first water flask in a continuous cycle.…

    Lava Experiment

    • 320 Words

    Our project is making a lava lamp in a bottle. My group members are Erik Duarte, Isaac Sanchez, Kenneth Loya, and Nick Mahan. Our question was can you make a lava lamp out of household items. Our hypothesis was you can if you find the right items. We were right you can if you put vegetable oil on top of water and then put the food coloring in and the ad Alka-Seltzer. Our background info is that vegetable oil is used to cook, water you used to drink and stay alive, food coloring is used to make food colorful, Alka-Seltzer it is used to make head aches go away if you put it in water and wait for I to dissolve. We put vegetable oil on top of water. Then we put the food coloring on top of the vegetable oil. Then we put the Alka-Seltzer in it. When it went in there it pushed the food coloring up into the vegetable witch made it go slow so it made bulbs of food coloring so it looked like a lava lamp. Why did this happen because, well the Alka-Seltzer reacted with the water naturally so the fizz pushed the food coloring up. So when it went up it ran into the vegetable oil witch is thick so it made it go into bubbles and if you have ever watched a lava lamp the lava forms into bubbles. So that’s why we call it a lava lamp inside of bottle. The conclusion is that you can make lava lamp household items if you use Alka-Seltzer, water, food coloring, and vegetable oil. So if you want to try just do what we did. That is our experiment. Why this happened because the Alka-seltzer had a chemical reaction beacuse of some powder on the outside of the alka-seltzer so the bubbles carried the food coloring up to the top of the bottle…
