There were many clues that could tell who poisoned him. I already know that many other celebrities were that were there. There was a clear liquid, bent metal, a meat product, and a white powder at the scene.My job is to find out who did it and how can the evidence i found help me find who poisoned him.


 * __Hypothesis__: ** I think that spongebob did it, because all of the things he brought to the party match the description of the evidence.
 * __ Materials: __** Hot plate,scoopula, well plate, forceps, beakers, stirring rod, eye dropper bottle, balance, graduated cylinders, test tubes, test tube rack, regular hot dogs, light hot dogs,98% fat free hot dogs, iodine.

__Step 2:__ Heat each drink separatly until it starts to boil and record the temperature. ( Boiling Point) __Step 3__: Look at eache liquid and record is it transparent, translusent, or opuae. (Optical Property) __Step 4:__ Get a test tube of water and pour one liquid in to see if it lays on top of the water or sinks to the bottom.Dump it out and then test the all the other liquids the same way. (Density) __Step 5:__ Use a conductivity calculator and put both ends in each liquid and record the data. ( Conductivity) __Step 6:__ Get some matches, light one of them, and place it in one of the liquids to see they are flamable.Do the same for each liquid. ( Flamability) __Step 7:__ Use an eye droper and put sodium bicarbonate in ueach drink ,see how it reacts, and record it. ( Reactivity)
 * __Drink Procedure__: ** __Step 1**:**__ Obsreve the drinks and write down everything you see.

__** Wraps Procedure **__: __Step 1:__ Observe the wraps and record observations. __Step 2__: Softly touch each wrap and record how it feels. (texture) __Step 3:__ Closely look at each wrap and record if it is shiny. (luster) __Step 4:__ Heat each wrap until it starts to melt or look up the **melting point** and record it. __Step 5:__ Use a **conductivity** calculator and put both ends on each wrap,and record the number. __Step 6:__ Put hydrocloric acid on each wrap, see how it reacts, and record it. (reactivity). __Step 7:__ Spark a match and place the hottest point of the fire on each wrap. (flamability)

__Step 2:__ Stir each powder in water to see if it desolves. __Step 3:__Look at each powder under a microscope and record what shapes the are. __Step 4:__Use a **conductivity** calculator and put both ends on each powder, and record the number. __Step 5:__ Feel each powder and record how it feels. __Step 6:__ Put acetic acid on each powder, see how it reacts, and record it. __Step 7:__ Spark a match touch the fire to the powder to see if it is flamable. __** Hot Dog Procedure: ** Step 1: __ Record all observations about the hot dogs. __ Step 2: __ Place each hot dog on a balance separately and record the mass for each of them. __ Step 3: __ Feel each hot dog and record how it felt. __ Step 4: __ Use a **conductivity** calculator and put both ends on each hot dog and record the number. __ Step 5: __ Squeeze each hot dog then use a balance to find the mass of each hot dog __ Step 6: __ Put iodine on each hot dog and record how it reacts. __ Step 7: __ Put fire on each hot dog to see if it is flamable; record.

The findings were not conclusive enough to prove the hypothesis right. The hypothesis was that Spongebob poisoned Rango.It could not have been proved because just because someone brought the items to the party that were found, does not mean they were the ones who did it. For example water and salt water have very simular results, if two people brought those things the could easily get mixed up. If the scientist change the manipulated variable the responding variable would also be different. There were also limitations in the experiment. The scientist could no heat an object to a certain temperature due to the lack of needed equiptment. Some flaws were the scientist could have tested the density more accuratly by finding the actual mumber. The next experiment that shouldbe done is how did someone poison Rango. The data was collected simularly to the data in this article. [] They both gathered and tested evidence to find out who commited a crime

 * __ Element Super Hero __**
 * Characteristics **



My super hero's name is Siliconic Swagg. Silicon is the element he is made from. Sence he is made from silicon he has all the characteristics of silicon. He has a __**dull**__ complection just like silicon does. So that makes it harder for criminals and other people to see him, especialy when its dark. He has __**smooth, hard**__ skin, So if someone trys to punch him, that hand will be very hurt. That also makes his hits alot harder. Silicon is the 2nd most __**abundent**__ element, so he can get power from alot of places. Silicon is also grey so he is __**grey**__. Silicon is found __**semi-conductors**__, which are found in phones, computers, and other electronic things. So he is able to fix, destroy, and recieve energy from them. Silicon is in a __**cubic**__ shape most of the time, so his fist and feet are cubicly shaped. This isn,t really an advantage or disadvantage. The atoms in silicon has __**three orbitals**__ in the electron cloud, so it can hold all __**14 electrons**__. So my hero has three electronic feilds around him. However many electrons there are in each field is how many hits it takes for that field to go away (Ex. first orbital has 2 electrons. Takes to bullet shots to make that orbital go away.). But sence electrons are negatively charged, the more that are destroyed the stronger he gets. They eventualy come back. Silicon was __**discoverd in 1823**__, so it is an old element. So my hero can't move that fast, and he also carries a cane to help him walk. This is a big disadvantage, because criminals could move faster than him. Also if he loses his cane he can't walk wery well. Silicon's __**melting point is 1410 C**__. So he can walk through fires to save people, and not get burned. If the tempuratue starts getting to high he will feel himself start to melt and he will have to step out of the fire, or the hot area. If he were to turn liquid, he would have to cool back down to go back to his normal form. Silicon is also not __**flamable or conbustible.**__ So he can't be blown up or set on fire. So this is the super hero Siloconic Swagg. He has many strengths, but not many weaknesses.So for all you bad guys out there, be prepared to taste some of this __** Instument Essay **__ My instruments name is the String Hanger, sepcificaly because what it is made out of. I knew that i had to make and instrament that didn't look like a real instrument. So I had to think of something.I wanted to make a string insrument but I didn't know what to make it out of. So I walked into my room and saw a hanger on my bed. I also had some fishing line I got from my grandfather. So I wrapped the line around the hanger, tightened it, and tied it. I plucked it and it made a good sound. When I turned the hook and plucked the string it made a different sound. So I thought to myself, this is it. The things I used to make my instrument were: a hanger, fishing line, cardboard, and duck tape. I got the hanger from out of my closet (it was actualy on my bed but it belongs in the closet). It is a clear hanger with slots to hold the string. I got the fishing line from my grandfather. It was very thin. I got the cardboard from my house. I ripped up a direct tv box.I got the duck tape from Ms. Langhans. It was grey. What i did to make the instrument was wrap the fishing line around the hanger and made sure it was tight. I hand problems trying to make sure that it was tight and make it stay. I also had trouble making it loud. So I got some thicker line from Edward Park, and cardboard from my house. I wrapped the line and put the cardboard behind the hanger. I made the cardboard stay with duck tape. It made the instrument louder. I didn't make any of the parts my self, I just put everything together. To play my instrument, you pluck one of the strings on the top part. I would prefer the longer strings.When you turn the hook part at the top it makes a different sound. The more you turn it the higher the pitch. There is really no way to tune my instrument without taking it apart. You can untie it and tie it back to tighten or loosen it, but that would be the only way. Before I put the cardboard on the back of the instrument they waves traveled in all directions. So I put the cardboard on the back so the sound waves reflect off of it and go in one direction. I thought this project was a good way of testing my creativity. I wasn't hard, and it was actualy pretty easy. I did not enjoy making my insrument one bit. Trying to get the string to stay tight was very frustrating. My fingers were tired, and i could have been doing other things. I learned that fishing line is really hard to break with my bare hand. I also learned that you can make an intrument out of anything.If I could change something in my instrument it would be the way it looks. It looks kind of sloppy, but everything else is good.
