ALEX AND BRIAN,

 

Group Results for samples tested using 3 tests

  IKI BIURET BENEDICT
PROTEIN negative positive negative
STARCH positive negative positive
DEXTROSE negative negative positive

 

My Results for bag weights before and after 24 hours in the cup

(weights in grams) WEIGHT BEFORE WEIGHT AFTER

STARCH BAG

IN H2O

17.29 17.14

H2O BAG

STARCH

7.32 7.40

H2O BAG

IN PROTEIN

4.64 4.80

H2O BAG

IN DEXTROSE

5.60 5.47

 

Conclusions:

     -More starch went into and out of the bag than water went out of and into the bag.

     -More protein entered the bag than water left.

     -More water left the bag than dextrose entered.

Observations:

-       most bags in water have masses that go up

          -water got into bags making the mass go up

          -except for the bag of starch whose mass went down; the starch escaped from the bag

      -       all of the bags OF water lost mass overnight

          What Happened: Ideas

               - Starch didn't leak into water, but water had to have leaked into the bag (weight increase)

               -Protein didn't leak into water, but water had to have leaked into the bag (weight increase)

               -Simple Sugar leaked into water (water tested positive for Benedict; weight decrease), and water had to have leaked into the bag (weight increase)
