Homework Day Three


Mixed with water
Doesn’t mix with water
Glass
Hydrogen peroxide
Olive oil

Mouthwash
Rubbing alcohol


Dish soap



Plastic
Hairspray
Jelly

Pink wine
Vinaigrette


Ketchup 



Conclusion: The liquids that mixed with water on glass were hydrogen peroxide and mouthwash. These both are made up with a majority of water so we think this is why they mixed with water.  These are showing a molecular attraction and strong chemical bonds.
The liquids that didn’t mix well with water were olive oil, rubbing alcohol and dish soap. With the olive oil and rubbing alcohol the water separated completely where as with the soap, the water collected around it. We think this didn’t mix well because it has a thicker consistency. These liquids lack a chemical bond with one another. They are repulsive of each other.
The liquids that mixed with water on plastics were hairspray and pink wine. We think that these mixed well because they are have a lot of water in them and a strong scent.  These chemicals are showing a strong molecular attraction.
The liquids that didn’t mix well with water were jelly, vinaigrette and ketchup. We think that these did not mix well because they are thick. With the jelly and ketchup, the water ran over the top but the color somewhat dispersed into the water too. The vinaigrette stayed in one puddle with bubbles all over.  These chemicals are made of different things and there for repulse one another in the water.
