Skittle Colours Experiment

 Skittle Colours


Aim:

I want to find out what happens when you mix Skittle colours.

Method:

Equipment:

  • Skittles
  • Petri dish
  • Warm water
  • Beaker
  • White background
Instructions:

1.Get your equipment
2.Place you Petri dish on the white background 
3.Put your skittle around the inside edge of the Petri dish
4.Gently, Pour warm water into the middle of the petri dish 
5. Observe what happens

Prediction: 

I think that the colours are going to spread out around the water and slowly mix, and the main part of the skittles are going to turn white and maybe start Turing the shell remain clear. 


 


I noticed that the colours started to spread towards the centre of the dish and mad a triangle shape. 

Discussion:

1. The colours dissolved (When a solid is mix into a liquid, creating a solution)

Why does the colours dissolve?

REASON 1:
The reason food colours meet in the centre of the plate and not mix is because the food colour has the same sugar amount dissolved from each skittles, when the sugar dissolves it pushes outwards into the rest of the solution, sending the colour outwards as well.   


REASON 2:
The skittle colours have tons of molecules and molecules don't like to be near other molecules so the colour spreads outward towards the centre where no colour is, so it diffuses (spread over a wide area or between a large number of people) towards the centre.

The Treaty of Waitangi

 Treaty of Waitangi 


Kia ora 

Today we will be talking about the treaty of Waitangi. This past few weeks we have been learning about the treaty of Waitangi. Our teacher set up some questions for us to answer. Then we had to choose 2 questions out of the drawing.


In what ways is a contract or treaty

like a computer? 


The treaty is like a computer because we have shared the treaty with others like I am on my blog post now. I am going to write a list of the reasons I think the treaty is like a computer.


  1. They shared the treaty with the country
  2. They connected to make a treaty

  3. They each played a part in the treaty/contract




  4. Give as many reasons as you can why a contract is like a sandwich :


    1.Because there are many different things that people put into a treaty and that's the same for a sandwich 

     
    A few weeks ago my class had to make a google drawing and put some of the facts that we knew.




    That's all I have to say right now about the treaty. I did this blog post with my partner and some friends, we might have simulator parts in our blog. Here's a question for you to find out yourself, When was the Treaty of Waitangi signed??
