The Water Cycle

The Water Cycle 

AIM: TO LOOK AT THE WATER CYCLE AND HOW CLIMATE CHANGE IS AFFECTING IT.

Hi, guys today in science we did an experiment about the water cycle. We made 3 bags one with water, one with soda water and one with sand and only a little drop of water. In each of the bag's, we put litmus paper.  Here are the results. 

Materials: 
1. water/soda water   
2. bag x3
3. food colouring 
4. litmus paper x3
5. Vivid
6. Sand
7. Cup

Steps for each bag:
Bag 1 
First, you need to get a bag and write in vivid on the bag all the main water cycle parts/label it. Step two add in one cup of water. Step 3 get one cup of water in the bag. Step 4 add-in two drops of blue food colouring in your bag. Step 5 get a litmus paper on the edge of the bag. Step 6 tape it to a window.  

Bag 2
First, you need to get a bag and write in vivid on the bag all the main water cycle parts/label it. Step two add in one cup of soda water.  Step 3 add-in two drops of blue food colouring in your bag. Step 4 get a litmus paper on the edge of the bag. Step 5 tape it to a window again.  

Bag 3

First, you need to get a bag and write in vivid on the bag all the main water cycle parts/label it. Step two add in one cup of sand. Step 3 add in at least 8 drops of water.  Step 4 add-in two drops of blue food colouring in your bag. Step 4 get a litmus paper on the edge of the bag. Step 5 tape it to a window again.  

	The Water Cycle: Bag 1	CO2 Water Cycle: Bag 2 Acid	Desert Water Cycle Bag 3
Does it cycle?	Yes, the water in the bag did cycle.	Yes, the soda water bag cycle.	Yes, it does cycle when it was dry.
Amount of Water	The amount of water is 2.	The amount of soda water is 2.	The amount of desert water is 2.
Acidity	There is no acidity so it would be 1.	There is acidity so it would be 3.	There is no acidity so it would be 1.

Key: Water and acidity amount: 

1 = none 

2 = small 

3 = large 

Other comments:

1. Bag one did cycle water. 

2. Bag one has an amount of water that is 2.

3. Bag one had no acidity so it would be 1.

4. Bag two did cycle even when it had soda water. 

5. Bag two has an amount of water that is 2 aswell.

6. Bag two had acidity so it would be 3.

7. Bag three does cycle when it was dry. 

8. Bag three an amount of water that is 2.

9. Bag three there is no acidity so it would be 1.

Conclusion:

I think that all of the bags went well. Next time do this experiment in summer to get better results. Bag one did do the water cycle. Bag 2 also did the water cycle and bag three did do the water cycle even when it has the smallest amount of water. I think that this experiment was interesting and exciting. I think that this was a good learning experience.
