Welcome to my blog!
Today my lab partner and I formed an experiment to test the out hypothesis on the Dancing Milk lab video.
In this video, a drop of dish soap is dropped onto a thin plate of milk, with a couple of food coloring drops on top.
Once the dish soap was dropped, the food coloring began to spread out throughout the milk in a fast reaction.
As a group, Elisa and I formed a hypothesis as to why the food coloring reacted the way it did. We formed a hypothesis that the chemicals in the dish soap broke down the lipids and fat bonds in the milk causing them to move around, which was visible to us due to the food coloring.
We recreated the lab, using the same materials; however, we switched the milk with different types of milk to see if the reaction would happen the same.
In the end,
we noticed that the dish soap for all liquids we tested, 2% milk, whole milk, and skim milk did react the same. Proving our hypothesis that the dish soap broke down all the fat in all of these and caused the food coloring to react the way it did.
