Distillation experiment (Science)

Aim: separate the solute from the solvent in Coke

Hypothesis: The liquid part of coke will vanish 

Equipment: tube beaker conical-flask, Bunsen burner, Ice, retort stand, boiling tube, gauze mat, tripod, delivery tube, Coke

Method: Get equipment, Set it up and put coke in the conical-Flask and grab the bunsen burner and stick it under the trip pod, then put the flask on top of the tripod then grab your beaker and get some ice and stick the beaker with the ice next to the tripod then stick a test tube in the beaker with the ice before then sticking a delivery tube into the flask and sticking the other end in the test tube, before then lighting your match and then turning on your bunsen burner

-After the experiment-

Results/Observation: As it burns the coke, the heat goes up through the pipe and over into the test tube filling it up, as it continues the coke slowly gets devoured or vanishes, and unlike others where it makes hard stuff on the side, ours kept bubbling and dissolving. 

Conclusion:  Sort of and sort of not, Yes because it did start vanishing and no cause not all of it did

Discussion: The coke evaporated due to the heat underneath it which the evaporated water from the coke then ran over to the other side into the test tube filling it up, almost melting the ice in the beaker.

Evaluation:  I would say it was, I mean we got different outcomes from others but we had a choice of 3 bottles of coke, we used coke zero if we didn't use coke zero we might have got a different outcome

  1. Great work Ruby! Why do you think your result was different when using coke zero? Your method was very detailed- good job.
