On February 25, 2009 we found out what happened with we mixed a liquid with water. We had four different bottles half filled with cooking oil, corn syrup, green colored water, and liquid hand soap. Mrs. Kershasky poured in water and we watched what happened. Some of us had a lot to see, some of us didn't. Then, we got to shake them up to see what happened then. The green water turned a little bit lighter because we added more water. The liquid hand soap mixed in and kind of swirled in with the water. The corn syrup mixed completely with the water. The oil and water didn't mix at all. In fact, we found out that oil is lighter than water, because the water was on the bottom and the oil was on the top. Mrs. Kershasky even poured some of the green water into the oil and water mixture at the end of the experiment after we predicted that the whole bottle would turn green. We were wrong! We forgot that water only mixes with the water, and not the oil. So, then there was green water on the bottom and the oil was still on top! It was so amazing!
