2. SKITTLES LAB
Experiment on dissolving

3. 1) Question/Problem
Will water, hydrogen peroxide, or sprite dissolve the Skittle first?

4. 2. Hypothesis – If Skittles are placed in three different solvents, then I predict that the Skittle placed in Sprite will dissolve the fastest because it is carbonated.

5. 3. Experiment Materials: Hydrogen peroxide water Sprite cups
spoons Skittles
B)Procedures
1) Place Skittle in three cups (one in each) 2) Pour 2 teaspoons of water in one cup
3) Pour 2 teaspoons of hydrogen peroxide in one cup
4) Pour 2 teaspoons of sprite in one cup
5) Check every 2 min. and note size
6) In ten minutes check to see which skittle is the smallest
