Hi :)

Hi Guys!!!
  Its been ages since i last blogged... and since i'm free today, I shall blog :D

  Ok, let's start from yesterday...

  I had to do this science experiment by my self cos its part of my ACE points. And the experiment which i carried out is called: Does the acidity of a fruit affects its ability to conduct electricity? Lol... i sound so formal in the previous sentence "-_-

  The first thing which i did was to cut lemons, orange, apple and watermelon and extract the juice from it. Then when i tried to extract the juice from the apple, this was what happened...












The apple was like, severely dehydrated and i decided to forget about it... haha

Next i assemble a electrical circuit so that i see if the juice of the fruits can conduct electricity. Honestly, i must admit that primary school science is seriously lacking in hands-on activities, and the textbooks always make a circuit appear very simple... Its wrong. Try making one if you have the time :D  But luckily, i managed to get the circuit out  ^ ^


To my great disappointment, none of the juice enabled the light bulb to light up. And then i was like wondering what the heck was the prob and i just started doing random things... Like rolling the lemon around and slicing a hole in it and wasted 2 lemons :P


Cute Right?? HAHA
And then, miraculously, i made an obsevation... 
Bubbles formed when the crocodile clips were placed near each other. This means that it is actually conducting electricity but not enough to light up the light bulb... At least i got something to tell my teacher :P

And then, here i am now, dunno what to do with all my hw finished and just staring into the air and facebooking... Haha

Signing off,
