How does the amount of dissolved NaCl in water effect the volume of one drop? Aim: This experiment plans to measure the volume of one drop of water and compare it the volume of one drop of sodium chloride solution. What will be attempted by this experiment is to measure the volume of one drop of distilled water by measuring a control and comparing it the volume of one drop of distilled water with dissolved NaCl. This will be done by using a burette for dropping the distilled water and a electrolyte

The data from the experiment rejects my hypothesis because the rice cakes had the highest experimental Kcalories per gram but I thought that popcorn would have the highest Kcalories per gram. It was hypothesized that popcorn would have the highest amount of Kcalories per gram when burned. My claim is true in the theoretical conditions. According to the data collected in the experiment‚ it shows that rice cakes had the highest experimental Kcalories per gram at 1.141 Kcalories per gram. I hypothesized
