Experimenting

This week I learnt what a experiment is about. A experiment is finding out information of something.

First, we chose one material to do the experiment on. The chosen material was Nappy brand 2. 

Next, we measured 100ml of water in a beaker, and put 5 drops of blue food colouring.

Then, we checked if the arrow was aligned on the zero. We then measured the nappy on a scale. The nappy weighed 50g. 

After, we took out the nappy out of the scale, and poured the water into the container. My group then waited for a few seconds so that the nappy could absorb the water. 

Lastly, we poured the water that wasn't absorbed into a measuring cylinder and wrote down the milliliters for the unabsorbed water. 

I enjoyed learning how to do this experiment. Being precise is a good skill in science so that we can understand the right way to do a experiment and being consistent is also a great skill so that you can get a great result.
