Coca-Cola under investigation (2)
Greetings fellow Scientists!
In our second session with Coca-Cola investigations, we strated by filtrating our samples through charcoal to see if we can separate some of its ingredients:
Secondly, we used Benedict's solution to test for the presence of sugars:

Coca-Cola under investigation
Greetings fellow Scientists!
Together with our friends from the Volcano Science Club in Poland, we are going to conduct a selection of experiments with different varieties of Coca-Cola to test out its properties.
Join us after half-term to see the results and more experiments!
Together with our friends from the Volcano Science Club in Poland, we are going to conduct a selection of experiments with different varieties of Coca-Cola to test out its properties.
We started by analysing the labels:
Then, we tried to find out if Coca-Cola contains caramel so we heated it up:
After that, we continued to check what gas is in Coca-Cola. We predicted it's carbon dioxide so we heated a sample up and passed the gas through limewater. As it turned milky/cloudy we know we were correct:
Lastly, we set up an experiment that is going to take a bit of time: we covered a rusty nail, a coin and an egg with Coca-Cola to see what effect it's going to have:
Join us after half-term to see the results and more experiments!
