Project Title: Crystal Clear
Project Abstract: My project was to find out if I could grow crystals in a substance with a different crystal structure. To do my project, first I had to get some plastic cups, paper clips, aluminum foil, metal rod, saucers, alum, epsom salt and sea salt.After making the crystals, by supersaturating boiling water with the substances alum, sea salt and epsom salt. I let the water evaporate to form the seeds. I then with my matierals I made and hung hooks inside my cups, I then placed a crystal inside. After 3 weeks I recorded my observations. I thought that the crystals grown in the same supersaturated solution would become the largest.
