Project Title: Sweet-talk

Project Abstract: I did this experiment to investigate the attraction forces between sugar and water. This is done by placing a few materials with differing sugar content in sealed environments. I used a marker, 6 sealable containers, 3 sweets, 3 halves of bread, 2 equal slices of apple, 2 sections of orange, and 2 small carrots. First, I labelled the containers A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, and C2. Then I placed a slice of apple in each of the "A" containers, a section of orange in each of the "B" containers, and a carrot in each of the "C" containers. A cookie was placed in containers labelled "1" and half a slice of bread in containers labelled "2". I left these containers sealed overnight.
