Please Note:
==== This table is different from the one outlined in the above Science Fair booklet. There will be__**no extensions**__ given, Class time will be given for writing up aim, hypothesis, instructions, explanations, diagrams, tables etc and putting displays together. Parents please support your child with carrying out their experiments as this will be the main element of their homework during Science Fair. ====

The best way to colour hot ice

Aim: to get hot ice to change colour using ether die,paint or food coloring.

Hypothesis: I think that die will do it the best because it mixes with water the best and I think that paint will do the worst because it doesn't mix with water very well.

Method:First I will boil sodium acetate and water intel it is a liquid then I will put in the fridge for about ten minuets then put in ether die, pant or food coloring and see witch one works the best if it works. also I will try putting the die, pant or food coloring at the start when I am boiling the sodium acetate and water to compare and see which one is the best

What I need: I will need sodium acetate, die, pant, water and food coloring.
