Purpose The purpose for this project is to see which brand of bubblegum makes the biggest bubbles. My hypothesis was that if you chew different brands of bubble gums for the same time, then Hubba Bubba Gum will make the biggest bubble. Procedures For this project 3 different brands of bubble gums were selected: Hubba Bubba Gum, Bubble Yum, and Bazooka Gum, which were used as independent variables. The size of the bubble obtained after blowing each gum was the dependent variable and the control variables were the time each gum was chewed (2 minutes) and the person chewing each gum (myself). The experiment started by gathering all the necessary materials (Bubble Gums, a ruler, a timer, papers, a pencil, a picture camera and a cardboard poster). Then, with the help of my partner (my mom), the experiment got started. I chew a piece of each gum for 2 minutes, each at the time, started by Hubba Bubba, then Bubble Yum and last Bazooka. I blow a big bubble, my partner measured, and the result was recorded. The same steps were repeated 3 times for each brand of gums, and the average size was calculated by adding the size of each bubble and divided by 3. Lastly, results were compared. The average size of the bubble made by Hubba Bubba Gum was 3.8 cm, Bubble Yum was 3.5 cm and Bazooka Gum was 3.3 cm. Results and Conclusion …show more content…
Therefore, my hypothesis was correct. I, also found that Hubba Bubba Gum was softer and easier to chew, as well as easier to blow. In the other hand, Bazooka Gum was the hardest to chew and very difficult to blow. Which, make me think that the softer is the gum, the biggest bubble it makes. To improve this experiment, I would increase the time of chewing the gum from 2 to 4 minutes. This project will help other kids know which Bubble Gum is better to buy and have fun with
They will be high school students that will be randomly selected from a high school population. All participants will be about the same age, all high school students, and intelligence level since they will all be attending the same high school. The participants will be selected randomly from a high school population. The experiment will be conducted in the same way for all of the groups. Additionally, the same amount of M&Ms will be eaten by each participant during the experiment.
Hypothesis: I think Pop Secret is going to pop the best, and leave the least amount of un-popped
Gum ruins people’s clothing. If you have ever sat in gum, you know you do not want to have that experience again.
The purpose of this experiment was to test multiple brands of popcorn under the same setting in order to conclude which one statistically popped the most kernels. I tested the butter flavor of Orville Redenbacher, Wal-mart’s Great Value brand, and Pop Weavers. The different bags of popcorn were popped in the same microwave for the same amount of time, 3 minutes and 15 seconds. Then, the popped corn was counted, as well as the un-popped kernels, in order to determine a ratio, and then I recorded the results in the data table. I repeated these steps two more times for a total of 3 trails for each brand. Then I compared the ratios of all the bags to determine which brand yielded the most popped corn. The statistical technique used to evaluate the data was to find a ratio between the number of kernels in the bottom of the bowl and the number of popped kernels. To find this, I divided the number of the actual popped corns by the total number of kernels left in the bottom of the bowl. The ratios and percent were then compared. Once all my results were in the data table, I averaged the 3 trials for each brand of popcorn.
Since sugar is composed of covalent bonds and therefore as we saw in part 2, takes much less time to melt, I think we didn’t observe bubbles because there was not as much as a reaction since it “melted” so much faster. Also, sugar does not change its composition when added to water, but salt does. Therefore, perhaps the sugar does not cause the screw to bubble much.
The materials used during the experiment included three plastic cups, three gummy bears, masking tape, marker, balance, calculator, tray, one plastic spoon, a measurement tray, and a ruler. The three plastic cups were used to hold the tap water, salt water, and sugar water. The masking tape and marker were used to label each cup with the
What is one change that could be made to make schools better? What do you think should be changed? In my opinion, one rule that should be changed to make our school better is give authorization for kids to chew gum. In fact, scientist have established that chewing gum can help enhance the student learning capability in numerous ways. Therefore, the rationale being is that kids that chew gum should be allowed to in school reason being it could help them stay more focused and become enhanced students, it could also help enhance their memory, and I have heard people in school saying that when they are chewing gum it helps them stay relaxed. However, chewing gum should be allowed in school is on behalf of it has been scientifically proven that chewing gum can cause students to be more focused and manufacture students become better, help them enhance their memory, and also I have heard from people scoffed around school that when they chew gum it helps them stay relaxed.
The purpose of this experiment is to find out which brand of paper towel, Decorator or
Though many people will think there is a lot of bad in soda, technically it’s just carbonated water, which is basically “gas that’s called carbon dioxide that has been dissolved under high pressure” (sciencebuddies.org). When one opens a can of soda pop the carbon dioxide in it is released out causing the bubbles in the drink, and the best part for this project is that one can choose their own way to do it, yes they may have to follow what the recipe calls for but they can choose their favorite flavors and their own color for it like if they wanted to they could make a bacon flavored pop but it might not taste the best but the point would be that it would be their own idea.
For my experiment I picked 3 different brands of bubble gums. Hubba Bubba gum, Bubble Yum and Bazooka. After chewing each piece of gum for 2 minutes, one at the time, I blow a bubble as big as I could. Then, my partner (my mom) measured and I write down the results. I repeated the same steps 3 times and results was collected in a data chart (see data chart # 1). Then, the average size of the bubble was calculated by adding each result and divided by 3. The average size of the bubble made from Hubba Bubba Gum was 3.8 cm, Bubble Yum was 3.5 cm and Bazooka was 3.3 cm. As a result of my experiment, I found that Hubba Bubba gum makes the biggest bubble (3.8 cm).
7. Now perform two trials of test with one bag of frozen popcorn kernels and one bag of room temperature popcorn. It is important to record the data off of each trial separately.
After researching, I found two studies that are similar to my experiment. One study by Sean Boyd (2007) tested to see which brand of microwave popcorn yielded the least amount of un-popped kernels. Mr. Boyd tested five brands of butter flavored microwave popcorn: Aldi, Act II, Orville Redenbacher, Jolley Time and Pop-Secret. His experiment proved his hypothesis partially wrong. Mr. Boyd hypothesized that Orville Redenbacher would be the best and Aldi's would be the worst. His experiment proved that Act II produced the least amount of un-popped kernels while Aldi's did have the most un-popped kernels on average.
If we chew different brands of bubble gums for the same time, then I think Hubba Bubba Gum will make the biggest bubble.
What makes bath bombs fizz and bubble? Will a bath bomb containing lime juice rather than citric acid dissolve faster? I think there is a chemical reaction within the bath bomb that makes it fizz, but I am not sure what things are reacting. I also think that if I substitute lime juice for citric acid in one half of the bath bomb, the half with citric acid will dissolve quicker. This is because it is pure citric acid, unlike lime juice which has other things as well as citric acid in it.
The “Med-Squad” lab group was approached by a local manufacturer to create a toy bouncy ball that is both nontoxic and eco-friendly using only polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetate, and sodium borate chemicals. The interactions between polyvinyl alcohol and sodium borate, and polyvinyl acetate and sodium borate make an ideal bouncy ball for the manufacturers. The experiment was divided up in two weeks. Week one consisted of making the bouncy balls and week two consisted of testing the bouncy balls in different environments: at room temperature, heated, and chilled. By dividing up the experiment into two weeks, it was found to be very effective because the group had a whole class period to make the bouncy balls and then had
