Cooper Coin (Science)

Today we did an experiment on a copper coin. we tried to turn in from copper to silver than to gold. at the start of the experiment we got our on individual coins then we cleaned them if they were dirty in salt and vinegar water, after that we put 50mL of 2molL Na HO into a beaker, we proceeded to set up the bunsen burner, we put the beaker with the chemical on top of the fire and waited for a light boil. we added Zinc power into our chemical and stirred the mixture, then we put it back on the heat and put the coin in with it after a while, it turned into a silver coin then we gave it a rinse and put it on the fire then soon it turned into a gold coin.

Sience (Acid Rain)

What is acid rain?
Acid rain is chemical weather, buildings, and statues made up of rocks that can get damaged during the acid rain. The acid rain is caused when chemicals in factories, cars, or any other type of technology that uses fossil fuel, coal, oil, and natural gases burned, these gases go up into the atmosphere where the clouds are and contaminates the clouds making the clouds turn acidic.

Method:
  1. set up Petriadd 
  2. add few drops of water to these
  3. add spatula of sodium sulfate to weigh boat
  4. take starting photo
  5. add 5 drops of sulfuric acid and quickly put a lid on
  6. watch and take a photo
Observation
I saw the different types of things that we put in, the blue litmus turned red as you can see on the picture, the two drops of chemical turned a different color as you can see, the calcium carbonate should have started to get eaten away but I guess it needs more time and the leaf should have started turning brown

Social studies

These past few weeks of social studies we have been learning about migration and the migration topic my class has been working on is refugees and how different refugees around the world migrate. They migrate because of their corrupt government and wars in their countries, people in those countries cannot live in those harsh environments. What I found interesting was how they migrated across the seas just for a better life for themselves, but what they don't know is they would arrive at their destination only to be disappointed because those countries don't let people in.

Maths

this week we continued on our work on GeoGebra, I liked making our own shapes and angles and overall I liked working on it. 

Science

In science, we have been learning about acids and bases, this topic has been kind of difficult, but I got through it just fine. We have used this thing called the universal indicator. so basically, I showed us weather the chemicals that we used were either acids or bases. Then we learned about the Ph scale, it was basically a range of how acidic or basic the chemicals were, the Ph scale was numbered from 1 to 14. acids are obviously acidic the most acidic acids are red and they are lower than 7 in the Ph scale and the base is the chemicals that are higher than 7, 14 are the most alkali.

this is what we did in science today. 
we use chemicals such as the universal indicator to find out if the other chemicals. 

   

Music

The Piano is the instrument that I am playing because I haven't done a solo performance with it. I haven't really chosen anything really. I am performing to the class because I feel confident in myself

Syrian Refugees (Social studies)

The past few weeks we have been learning about migration and this work that I have done is a topic about migration, we had to pick a country that had refugees and we had to answer kind of easy, but I liked doing them at the same time I hope you learned something from my work.
