Experiment - Sarah

Reflection from experiment


The experiment we did today was.......

Today in science we did an experiment with fire and chlorides. We added a pinch of Magnesium, Sodium, Copper and Potassium to the fire. When the chlorides touched the fire they created a reaction, a colourful reaction. 

Was the experiment an accurate representation of the science behind the colour of the stars?

The experiment wasn't an accurate representation of the stars because, we didn't change the temperature of the fire t match the temperature of the stars. Also stars are made of several different materials, and they are all different sizes. We couldn't have created an accurate representation of the stars today.
