Physical Qualities of Food
Purpose of lab: The purpose of this lab was to see the food products boiling point.
Procedure of lab: (what did we do-be complete) We massed all of the supplies using electronic scale and than we measured all of the liquids using the graduated cylinder. Than we found the volume of the solids by using rice and the displacement method. We recorded are findings on the data table. We found the boiling point for the corn syrup, the cooking sherry, and the water. Than we layered the colored water, than the corn syrup, oil, the cooking sherry, chocolate chips, marshmallows, and than ice. After we layered all of them we saw the corn syrup on the bottom and the the cooking sherry mixed with the colored water. When we added the oil it started to make little tiny bubbles on top of the water and sherry.

Which of the liquids or solids is the densest? The corn syrup was the most dense
Which of the liquids or solids is the least dense? The marshmallows were the least dense.
Was there a relationship between a liquid's density and its boiling point? Yes because the highest and the lowest for the numbers were in order and the same.
What were your predictions? Sarah's prediction was that the oil would sit on the top. Taryn's prediction was that the oil will stay in the middle because the corn syrup is thick.
How accurate were your predictions? Taryn's prediction was the most accurate. Sarah's was mostly accurate.
How can you apply this to food preparation? Use one example from class AND think of one more to post! If we were cooking/mixing with food that has different densities we would have to remember that they'll separate if left out for a while. It's better for the different food densities and use them quickly so than they don't seprate.

This is what our experiment looks like when you add the oil to the water, cooking sherry, and corn syrup.
This is the AFTER PICTURE when you mix all of this together and they stay in the same order after a while.
This is Taryn pouring the corn syrup into the graduated cylinder on the electronic scale and I'm SMILING/LAUGHING because I love this class so MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is SARAH focussing on not spilling the rice and making a big mess cause than she'll have to CLEAN IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
