Mystery Mixture Hypothesis by Kristine Proper

Magnesium Sulfate & Sodium Bicarbonate

167201 — 2019-02-28 14:41:06 UTC

I think the Mystery Mixture and consists of magnesium sulfate and sodium bicarbonate. Sodium bicarbonate or baking soda was powdery and tiny which explains one of the two substances. The other substance could've been the Epsom salt, Epsom salt is squarish, clear, grainy and medium sized. I think it is these two substances because of their texture, size, shape, and color/appearance.

List 2 substances that you think make up the Mystery Mixture

The mixtures I think are in it are baking soda and washing soda. The reason is because washing soda bubbles up and baking soda is powdery just like the mix. The second thing we think it is is ascoribic acid and baking soda because they started to fizz and bubble. The sound was also a lot like it because you could here the little bubbles popping just like the mystery mixture. Also there was a little white circle in the middle just like in the mystery mixture. The apperances are a lot like each other because they both looked like sprite towards the end when the reaction was over with only a few bubbles.

me and my group think that the mystery mixture is baking soda and table salt. because the all white with some kind of crystal light.

Megan Kelley

me and my group think that the two mystery mixtures are table salt and baking soda. Why we thought these two mixtures were those two because how they looked. Today we will see if those two are really make the mystery mixture.

Evelyn Schini

166042 — 2020-02-27 14:46:35 UTC

Me and my group think that the two substances are Washing soda and baking soda because the reaction of the two when you add water is like when baking soda is introduced to a liquid acid it fizzes up, but you might think it's citric acid but citric acid is too yellowish for the mostly white powder. Why I think its washing soda is because washing soda contains acid and is the white powder substance that is like baking soda. Or it could just be baking soda and epsom salt because that is cubish and is bigger while still containing the acidic property.

Isaac

2020-02-27 14:47:08 UTC

Me and my group think that the two mystery mixture is table salt and baking soda. We think that because the table salt looks just like the crystal substance in the mystery mixture. We think it is baking soda because it is powdery and clumps kinda together.

Ethan

2020-02-27 14:47:43 UTC

I think that the two mixtures are baking soda and ascorbic acid because the baking soda would make the fizzes and the ascorbic acid would make the color become a gray like color

Madison C.

2020-02-27 14:47:43 UTC

My group decided on washing soda and baking soda, because baking soda when it fizzes turn a little bit gray, and washing soda it bubbles. But we did star Sugar , and Epsom salt for because they both have estidc properties

Jaelyn Storch

1651310 — 2020-02-27 14:47:52 UTC

I think that the Mystery mixture is made of baking soda and table salt The reason I think that the Mystery mixture is those two because they look alike. The baking soda looks powdery and in the Mystery mixture there is powder. And table salt because there is a small crystal cylinder, and in the Mystery mixture there is a small crystal cylinder.

Mixture Hypothesis #2
I think it is Citric acid and Sodium Bicarbonate. When we mixed the two substances together, they had the same results as the the Mystery Mixture. They both fizzed, bubbled, the color changed, the temperature changed, and it made a popping noise like a soda.

mason

2020-02-27 14:48:25 UTC

I think that the 2 substances to make the mystery substances are sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride because when you baking soda is the stuff in model volcanoes and the model volcanoes kinda do the same thing as what we did Tuesday.

Sodium bicarbonate and Calcuim Corbinate

165455 — 2020-02-27 14:48:29 UTC

I think these two substances make the mystery substance because It looks kinda chalky. and also I feel like it will get fizzy because of the texure and the pure white color of it and thats how I got the second substance I once at home had put water on the baking soda and it got a little fizzy.

Julian

165267 — 2020-02-27 14:48:48 UTC

Our theory for the mystery mixture is that it is sucrose, or sugar, and sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda. We think this because sugar is sort of flaky and clear, which is the description of one of the substances we found in the mixture. We think baking soda because of its powdery characteristic because the residue at the top , which was the other substance in the mixture. We also believe that it is baking soda because both vials have a residue at the top that are very similar.

Julia

2020-02-27 14:48:56 UTC

We thought the mystery mixture was sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and sodium chloride (table salt). The mystery mixture was crystal like and clear, like salt, but also fine and powdery, and stark white, like baking soda. When you put water on the mixture, it fizzes and bubbles. That usually happens when baking soda comes in contact with a liquid like vinegar.

david

174333 — 2020-02-27 14:48:59 UTC

i think that the mixtures are baking soda and sodium chloride because their were some type of way how it looked and how when we put water in the mystery it had started bubbling and that make baking soda water like that by it bubbling so i think that the mystery mixes are those.

Kamio Moore

2020-02-27 14:49:25 UTC

In my opinion I think the 2 substances are probably baking soda and Epsom salt. The baking soda is kind of floury, which me and my group could see in the mystery mixture. I could definitely see that in the mystery mixture that there was a sign of a white floury substance. The Epsom salt is a little more stuck together, which we could also see. The Epsom salt was also more crystallized and not as white or grainy as the other salts. We think that both of the mixtures could possibly be the mystery mixture.

Kayla

2020-02-27 14:50:07 UTC

The mixtures I think are in it is baking soda and washing soda . The reason i think this is because washing soda bubbles up when you add water to it and baking soda dissolves when you add water . The mix of the two without water is very powdery. Baking soda and washing soda are two very powdery substances. That looked just like the mystery mixture.

Jett

2020-02-27 14:50:19 UTC

Me and my group think that the mystery mixture is made up of baking soda and table salt. We think this because they both have the crystal look,and the powdery look.

Wyatt Henderson

2020-02-27 14:50:56 UTC

i think the two mystery substances are table salt and baking soda because it has this substance like a crumbs of table salt and it has a substance that has that looks like baking soda

Sarah

2020-02-27 14:51:15 UTC

what I believe that the two substances are is some sort of baking soda with sodium chloride.I think this because of the fluffy white look of the substance but the grainy part of the substance as well.

Gage Handlon

1659510 — 2020-02-27 14:51:17 UTC

we chose table salt and baking soda because of the color and the way they look. They both have the same texture as the mystery substance.

Peyton

2020-02-27 14:51:46 UTC

Sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, and maybe if one of those are wrong we also think that sodium chloride might be in there. Both of the sodium bicarbonate and the sodium carbonate are powdery and is made up of very small particles. The if the salt is in it, then it would make sense that it looks like part of the mixture is kind of crystallized.

sucrose, or suga,r or baking, soda.

Maddie

sodium carbonate and salt, baking soda because

Emmagrace Hudson

2020-02-27 14:59:23 UTC

I think salt and baking soda. It is all white. Baking soda and salt could

Jonah Rankin

164837 — 2020-02-27 16:09:16 UTC

I think that the two mystery substanvces are baking soda and washing soda, I think this because not only are their chemical formulas very similar, but also if you mix them together then it looks like it would look like the mystery solution.

Kynleigh Martin

2020-02-27 16:09:50 UTC

I think the "mystery substance" is Sodium Bicarbonate and Citric Acid. I think this because Sodium Bicarbonate is a very fine bright white powder and Citric Acid is a larger more crystal type shape and a bit of a see-through color.

Rowan Kerkhof

2020-02-27 16:09:55 UTC

I think the two substances are baking soda and something else. I think it might be salt that goes with the baking soda because it has that powdery look to it but it also looks a little bit crystal like look in it also.

Ashtyn Davis

2124910 — 2020-02-27 16:10:00 UTC

I think it might be epsom salt and baking soda because epsom salt is what bath bombs are made of and it dissolves in water and fizzes and bubbles like our mixture did so ours in mainly a guess of epsom salt and baking soda.

Lorelei Swanson

2020-02-27 16:10:01 UTC

I think that the two chemicals are baking soda and washing soda, because the texture and colors combined create the texture and colors of the mixture. The other chemicals also seem like they aren't as close of a match in clumpiness and texture to the mixture. Baking soda and washing soda combined would be about as clumpy as the mixture.

Joseph Caceres

2020-02-27 16:10:03 UTC

I think its baking soda and washing soda. because both of them have the same physical properties as the mixture. One falls a bit slower that the mixture and one falls slower, we think that if they are mixed together, these will balance each other out. Also the size, color and shape are the same as the ones we have observed in the mixture, for instance, they are both small, one is white, the other one is more of a transparent color. The particles appear to be oval shaped, and cube shaped, just like in the mixture.

Landon Essex

165413 — 2020-02-27 16:10:05 UTC

We chose baking soda and washing soda (NaCHO₃ and Na₂CO₃) because of what they look like with the color, size, and shape.

Emma Vinnell

2020-02-27 16:10:05 UTC

My group and I have came to a strong conclusion that the substance could potentially be a mixture of both baking soda and washing soda. We noticed that the mystery mixture was powdery like both of the substances. The baking soda clumped, but the washing soda didn't. The mystery mixture sticked together, but it didn't necessarily clump. This could be due to the added attributes from both of the substances. They were similar in color, and the particles looked identical to both the washing soda and the baking soda.

Kayleigh Lund

2020-02-27 16:10:22 UTC

I think that the to chemicals are baking soda and washing soda. If you would mix them together they would look like the mystery solution

Hannah Jensen

2020-02-27 16:10:31 UTC

My group believes that the two mystery chemicals were citric acid and epsom salt. We chose these because the epsom salt had tiny particles, it had a foggy white color, and it made big clumps. I learned in ¨White substances information¨ that bath bombs are made out of epsom salts. When the mystery mixture mixed with water it had a similar effect to what happens to bath bombs when they are put in water.

Mason Miller

165871 — 2020-02-27 16:10:36 UTC

I think it is salt and baking soda. I believe this because it is almost all white and the reaction is somewhat like baking soda and washing soda.

Joe Parker

16601gcsc — 2020-02-27 16:10:46 UTC

I believe one ingredient is baking soda. What lead me to believe this is that one part of the mixture is a fine powder. There were many of these on the list, including baking powder. However when we added water I new part of it was baking soda because it started fizzing and making bubbles. The other ingredient I thought it was was sugar. The other ingredient was a clearer, bigger particle, like sugar. The ingredients also stuck together, like when sugar has water pored on it.

Nolan Frye

175146 — 2020-02-27 16:11:43 UTC

I believe the two chemicals in the mixture are baking soda and washing soda. I believe this because when water acted on the chemicals one seamed to fizz while the other caused a temperature change and a gas to form. I believe the baking soda made the gas and temperature but washing soda is used in soap so it would cause a fizz looking like soda

Carson R

164852 — 2020-02-27 16:12:11 UTC

I think that it is baking soda and washing soda. This is because baking soda was very clumpy and very powdery. The mystery mixture was also very powdery and clumpy. The mystery mixture also had a cube like shape in some parts. Washing soda also has a cube like shape to it.

Evelyn Schurger

174125 — 2020-02-27 16:12:15 UTC

I think that the Mystery Solution is Sodium bicarbonate(NaHCO3) and Citric Acid (C6H8O7). I believe this because baking soda, is very powdery like the Mixture that we examined. However the mixture also looked like it had small crystals in like the Citric acid.

Ava Wilhelm

166051 — 2020-02-27 16:12:49 UTC

I believe that the two substances are washing soda and baking soda. I think this because the color size and shape look like that of both substances. I know that washing soda bubbles in water, so I knew it had to be at least washing soda. In the mystery mixture, the whole thing was powdery. This already roles out some substances. We took out the substances calcium chloride, and ascorbic acid. Later on we had, over time, took out all substances except washing and baking soda.

Erin Daniels

173662 — 2020-02-27 16:14:29 UTC

I think that the mystery solution is made up of the chemicals Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking soda) and Sodium Carbonate (washing soda) because both chemicals were very powdery and both were white and circular.

2020-02-27 16:14:44 UTC

Trevor Smith

1401810 — 2020-02-27 16:16:04 UTC

t think the substances in the mystery mixture are table salt and baking soda because I have seen someone do this before and they had the same results as we did. The chemicals were both white and so was the mystery mixture.

I think the substances could have been table salt and washing soda. I think it could be washing soda because it is finer than baking soda and I think it is salt because when w looked into the container with the hand lens we could see little crystal like cubes that looked just like table salt. I don´t think it could have road salt in it because road salt is a lot bigger and is a ball shape .

165682 — 2020-02-27 18:04:24 UTC

Taylor Guzick

2020-02-27 18:04:40 UTC

I think that the mystery mixture is baking soda and sugar because the baking soda is powdery and it sticks together. And the sugar is grainy and yellowish white. And i think that together they would make the mystery mixture.

Elijah Speer

2020-02-27 18:04:49 UTC

i think the substance is the chalk mixed with baking soda

Jolan Goad

2020-02-27 18:04:53 UTC

I think that the Mystery Mixture is made of Sodium Chloride (NaCl, Also known as Table Salt) and Sodium Bicarbonate (NahCO, Also known as Baking Soda) Because the clear square- like looking crystals are like salt, and the white powdery stuff looks like baking soda.

Kimberly Kurek

2020-02-27 18:05:34 UTC

I think there are is baking soda in the mystery mixture because baking soda because when we dropped water into the mystery mixture it rised,bubbled, and fizzed and baking soda make things rise. I also think that citric acid is also in the mystery mixture because citric acid is used in things like sour candy and sodas like sprite and the reaction of the mystery mixture and the water looks exactly like sprite.

Carson Anderson

165886 — 2020-02-27 18:05:54 UTC

I think the mystery mixture sodium bicarbonate because it creates lava which fizzes or bubbles and rises up when the volcano erupts.
I think the second substance is and calcium chloride.

Zachary Walker

2020-02-27 18:06:08 UTC

I think that the mystery mixture is made up of washing soda and baking soda. I thing that it is baking soda and washing soda, because both substances in the mystery mixture are both bright white and fine. So are both washing and baking soda.

Lillye Fillebrown

196683 — 2020-02-27 18:06:14 UTC

I think the mystery mix is sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and chloride (table salt) because in the fossweb it says the has this reaction to each other and by looking at them we can kind see it is in the mystery mix. My secound guess is baking soda and citric acid.

Bryson Phillips

166027 — 2020-02-27 18:06:21 UTC

I think that the mystery mixture is a combination of Baking soda and Sugar. The reason I think these are the two mixtures is because they are about the same color and texture.

Delaney Kent

2020-02-27 18:06:27 UTC

I think the mystery mixture is sugar and baking soda because they are the same size and color.

Madi Moss

2020-02-27 18:06:28 UTC

My group and I think it is Baking soda and sugar. The baking soda because it sticks to the side but not to much like the mystery solution. Sugar because it is not to thick it would mix in but something else like citric acid you would see it and you can not see it in the mystery solution.

Madison

19471 — 2020-02-27 18:06:37 UTC

I think it is the baking soda and the citric acid because the baking soda made it fizz🗿

grayson zurwell

1475611 — 2020-02-27 18:06:40 UTC

i think that its backing soda and sugar bc the cristals in the mystery mixture look the same as the sugar cristals and the backing soda bc the way it falls when you flip it over

Memphis Blevens

2020-02-27 18:06:48 UTC

I think its salt and washing soda .

Dylan Foster

2020-02-27 18:06:53 UTC

I think it was baking soda and salt because one of the substances look like small, clear, round crystals, and salt is also clear, small, round, and crystal like as it said on page 51. I think the other one is baking soda because it is white, powdery, tiny, just like it said on page 51 in our science notebooks.

Christian Heuer

164933 — 2020-02-27 18:07:13 UTC

I think the mystery substance is baking soda and Citric acid because baking soda clumps up some and is super small like grains of sand and Citric acid because it sticks to the popsicle stick and when it gets moisture it is sticky and they put it in candy and it is sticking when you lick it.

Aiden colwell

2020-02-27 18:07:18 UTC

I think it is baking soda and espon salt because it has clear parts and the texture and the way it fall is like baking soda.

Dylan Fuchs

2020-02-27 18:07:19 UTC

I think that they were baking soda and washing soda because one was like thinner and it looked not as hard and the other one looked like harder and it had like an x but in all they kinda looked slimier.

Noah Ferrell

2020-02-27 18:08:24 UTC

I think the substance is baking soda and citric acid

Dylan Gray

2020-02-27 18:08:31 UTC

I think it is citric acid and baking soda. Baking soda because it makes stuff bubble, fizz, and rise. It is also in model volcanoes. And the acid because it was the only clear, small, and rock-like substance

Sophi Burris-Sturgill

2020-02-27 18:09:06 UTC

I think the mystery mixture baking soda and salt because baking soda is white and tiny like one the the parts of the mixture.

deanna day

2020-02-27 18:09:07 UTC

I thing that is baking sode salt.

Claire Gardner

165946 — 2020-02-27 18:11:33 UTC

The 2 substances I think are the mystery mixture is Sugar and Baking soda. Because they both looked and had the same shape of the Mystery mix

chris

2020-02-27 18:12:21 UTC

i think the mystery mixture is made of salt and washing soda because baking soda needs vinegar to activate like that.

Kaiden

2020-02-27 18:12:53 UTC

I think its citric acid and baking soda because you can see them in the mystery mix and baking soda making lots of solutions with other things and citric acid is in like sodas to make them bubble

Bradley Malet

164771 — 2020-02-27 18:14:29 UTC

I think that the mixture are sodium chloride and baking soda.

asdfghjklkjhgfdsasdfghjkl;kjhgfdsa

173699 — 2020-02-27 18:14:32 UTC

I think it is sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. Salt dissolves but it does not make it look like sprite.

Gage Gibson

194743 — 2020-03-02 12:48:12 UTC

Me and my group think for the two substances is washing soda and citric acid because it was trying to do the same thing, which was bubbling and fizzing, but it had sink so we were getting somewhere.

Julia

2020-03-02 12:49:48 UTC

We think it's washing soda and citric acid. See, when we tested our first hypothesis, it didn't react the way the mystery mixture did. After some trial-and-error, we had two candidates: Number 8 (washing soda and citric acid), and Number 10 (chalk and citric acid). They both fizzed, but the mystery mixture had a white spot. Number 10 did, but it seemed way too big. So, Number 8 seems the most likely.

Ethan

2020-03-02 12:52:21 UTC

I think that the two mixture is sodambacknte or baking soda and ascorbic acid because them mixed to gather they might make the bubbling.

Kamio Moore

2020-03-02 12:52:21 UTC

We think that the mystery mixture is baking soda and citric acid. When we tested our old hypothesis, it did not work, but when we tested citric acid, it had the same chemical reaction as the mystery mixture also had.

Madison Crockett

2020-03-02 12:52:25 UTC

Our group decided on Citric Acid, and Baking Sods

mason

2020-03-02 12:52:43 UTC

I think that it is sodium bicarbonate and citric acid because when those are two are mixed with water they did the same thing as the mystery mixture

Peyton

2020-03-02 12:53:01 UTC

I think that the two substances are citric acid, and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda). The baking soda has the powdery feeling with small specks of white powder. The the citric acid had bigger crystal looking "rocks". The baking soda was a big part of the residue that sunk to the bottom when it was done fizzing. The citric acid was what made the mixture fizz and what made the bubbles sink. Between the fizzing, the sinking, the temperature change and the color change, we decided these two substances made sense to be in the mystery mixture.

Jett

2020-03-02 12:53:04 UTC

Me and my group think that the two substances that make up the mystery mixture are citric acid and washing soda. Because it has the same fizzing and has the same effects as the mystery mixture.

Gage Handlon

1659510 — 2020-03-02 12:53:07 UTC

We think it is citric acid and baking soda because they have the same everything like the same bubbles and fizz.

Kayla

2020-03-02 12:53:47 UTC

I think that the mystery mixture is not washing soda and baking soda anymore i think that it is Ascorbic acid and baking soda. The reason we think this is because They both bubbled and fizzed . Toward the end it also had bubbles in it left over and they looked the same when it was done fizzing it was left with bubbles

Isaac

2020-03-02 12:54:55 UTC

I think that the two mystery substances are citric acid and sodium bicarbonate because this mixture made almost the same reaction it started fizzing and bubbling just like the mystery mixture. The bubbles in our mixture also sank to the bottom just like the bubbles in the mystery mixture.

165665 — 2020-03-02 12:55:35 UTC

The second thing we believe it is is ascorbic acid and baking soda. The reason we think it is this is because they both bubbled and fizzed. Towards the end also it looked a lot like sprite because it had a few bubbles and looked just a lot like it with how clear it is and bubbles

2025110 — 2020-03-02 12:56:43 UTC

My group think that the mystery mixture is mixed with citric acid and sodium bicarbonate because these two mixtures made a reaction just like the mystery mixture, it started fizzing, popping, and bubbling exactly as the mystery mixture did.

Maddie Wiley

164479 — 2020-03-02 12:59:16 UTC

Wyatt Henderson

2020-03-02 13:03:33 UTC

we think it is citric acid and sodium bicarbonate because this mixture is almost the same reaction because it started fizzing and bubbling like the mystery mixture. the bubbles also sank to the bottom just like the bubbles in the mystery mixture

Joe Parker

16601gcsc — 2020-03-02 14:40:26 UTC

After further review, I have a new idea for the mixture. Now I believe it to be absorbic acid and sodium bicarbonate. The results were identical to the mystery liquid. There was also another mixture that was identical, citric acid and sodium bicarbonate. What set then apart is absorbic acid had less residue, like the mystery liquid.

Tucker B.

163625 — 2020-03-02 14:40:52 UTC

I think it is citric acid and baking soda. The reason I think it is those two is because the had the same reaction as the mystery mixture and left no white powder at the bottom. They also have the same shape and they look like they have the same texture. One is more of like a powder and the other one is more of like a little rough minerial

Kayleigh

2020-03-02 14:41:01 UTC

I think that its Citric acid and baking soda because it had almost the same chemical reaction as the mystery mixture.

Hannah Jensen

2020-03-02 14:41:08 UTC

I changed my mind after we started to test the chemical properties, because my original two substances did not have the same chemical reaction. My new hypothesis is that the substances are citric acid and baking soda, because they popped and fizzled and turned cold the same way that the mystery mixture did.

Mason Miller

165871 — 2020-03-02 14:41:11 UTC

My group thinks that the Mystery Mixture is either Ascorbic Acid and Sodium Bicarbonate or Citric Acid and Sodium Bicarbonate

Trevor Smith

1401810 — 2020-03-02 14:41:14 UTC

I think the substances are sodium bicarbonate and citric acid because I know that it has to be sodium bicarbonate because it said it if it is mixed with acid it reacts and i know it has to be citric acid because that is an acid and vitamin c is an orangish color and I didn't see any orange in the mystery mixture

Joseph Caceres

2020-03-02 14:41:16 UTC

I do have a new hypothesis about the mystery mixture, after further study with our wells, our group has concluded that instead of baking soda and washing soda it is baking soda and either citric acid or absorb acid. We think this because when combined, the chemical reaction was the same as the mystery mixture, the same things happened. It bubbled, It fizzed, it even changed temperature and color, and after it stopped bubbling and fizzing, it looked the same as the mystery mixture did when it stopped.

Ashtyn Davis

2124910 — 2020-03-02 14:41:32 UTC

I do not think it is epsom salt and sodium bicarbonate anymore because it does not seem likely and so now I have changed my mind into thinking it is citric acid and sodium bicarbonate and the reason I think that is because from the mystery mixture they have the same result cold, pop, fizz, bubble, and dissolve it is the same as the mystery mixture and on day one I thought the same but kept rethinking and now have came to that conclusion.

Nolan Frye

175146 — 2020-03-02 14:41:35 UTC

My hypothesis has changed in the beginning I thought that it was baking soda and washing soda now I think that it is backing soda and citric acid. I believe this because they look like the mystery mixture and so does the reaction .

Evelyn Schurger

174125 — 2020-03-02 14:41:41 UTC

I do not have a new hypothesis because when we experimented the Mystery Mixture and the Sodium bicarbonate and Citric Acid mixture almost the exact same reaction. They were both bubbling, fizzing and left a small residue.

We still believe that the mystery mixture is sodium bicarbonate and citric acid because when we tested it had nearly identical reactions. When both the mystery mixture and the sodium bicarbonate were done fizzing, they even had the same pattern of residue left in the bottom.

Instead of thinking that the two substances are washing soda and baking soda, we think that they are either citric acid or abscorbic acid and baking soda. The washing soda did not produce a chemical reaction. It might be the abscorbic acid because the citric acid particles were a little too big. Both colors looked accurate.

I think the substances are citric acid and sodium bicarbonate. I think this because it bubbled, fizzed, popped, dissolved, bubbles went to the bottom, turned cold, and it left little white residue. The mystery mixture did the exact same thing. I used to think it was sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate, but when we tried it, there was no reaction. There were other reactions, but none of them were as close as citric acid and sodium bicarbonate.

My new hypothesis is that the mystery mixture is sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. When we mixed them together with water, it looked exactly like the mystery mixture. It bubbled, it turned grayish, and it also turned cold.

I think that the mystery mixture is citric acid and baking soda because it had the most similar reaction when added with water. The substances properties are similar too, powdery, white, tiny, circle shaped, and it even bubbled and fizzed like the mystery mixture other substances had no reaction, and only 3 mixtures had a reaction but two of them had res ado while the mystery mixture doesn't so I think that baking soda and citric acid is the mixture

I now believe that the substance is a mixture of sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. I think this because the mixture had a very similar chemical reaction to the mystery mixture. It fizzed, bubbled, and turned kind of grey. The mystery mixture did all of these things too. In addition to the sounds, color changes, and ect, the mixture also got cold after we added water. The mystery mixture did the same thing, and both of the mixtures seemed to be around the same temperature after the chemical reaction.

i think it has citric acid or surger in it then backing soda or chalk for the other

My hypothesis changed because at first I thought that the two mystery substances were baking soda and table salt, but after testing them they did not have the same reaction as the mystery substance did. Now I think the two mystery substances are citric acid and sodium bicarbonate (Baking soda ) I think these two substances make up the mystery mixture because when testing it had the same bubbling and fizzing as the mystery mixture. A couple other looked like the mystery mixture but did not have the same reaction.

My first hypothesis was that the mixture was sugar and baking soda because the two mixtures looked a little alike to the mystery mixture. But as we added the mixtures together and put water in it. I could tell that i was not correct. When you pour the water on it, The mixture dose nothing and it all sinks to the bottom.

My hypothesis changed because I new I put at least one wrong mixture to create the mystery mixture. At first, I thought it could have been baking soda because the baking soda fizzed and bubbled when the liquid was poured into it. But baking soda reacts to vinegar instead of water. So I put some other random mixture so that the baking soda reacted to something. I knew that baking soda reacted with another liquid. So, therefore I put another mixture to make it fizz. The other mixture was just a ¨ cover up ¨ for the baking soda. I think my other mixture was either some kind of acid or M. Sulfate. I just picked one and went with what I had.

My hypothesis change by me thinking it was Baking Soda and Sugar I think what the actually 2 substances that make up the mystery mixture is Asorbic acid and Chalk Because the 2 of them mixed together made it look like the mystery mixture a little bit.

Carson Anderson

My hypothesis changed because after testing them it did not have the same reaction that the mystery mixture had.I think the new substances are Acsorbic acid and sodium carbonate. I think this because when we mixed them together the mixture fizzed and turned a grey color. Then it went clear and you could see it bubbling. Like sprite. Which Is exactly what are mystery mixture did.

I think that the mystery mixture is ascorbic acid and sodium carbonate.  My group and I did this  more than once to see if we got the same reaction. We got the same reaction both times. This is why i think this is the mystery mixture is the combination.

i think the mixture is made up of citric acid and baking soda because the chemicals underwent the same changes as the mystery mixture our old hypothesis stated that we thought it was salt and baking soda but that was proved faulty.

Our new hypothesis is that the two mixtures are no longer Baling Soda and sugar and now are Citric Acid and Sodium Bicarbonate. The reason I these are the two mixtures because when mixed they have pretty similar chemical reactions. They both bubble and fizz off the start. It also leaves a little residue at the beginning but then it dissolves. The only difference is that the mystery dissolves the residue a little bit faster. Our mixture also leaves a little bit of residue.

At first I thought that the Mystery Mixture was made from table salt, and baking soda. My hypothesis changed after the experiment we did, and I think that the Mystery Mixture is made of citric acid and baking soda, because the reactions of the Mystery Mixture and the citric acid and baking soda were identical, they both fizzed and bubbled, and when they stopped they both were the same.

Instead of thinking that the two substances are washing soda and baking soda, our group thinks that the mystery mixture is made of citric acid, and baking or washing soda. The washing soda and baking soda did not have a reaction. The citric acid and baking soda had a reaction like the mystery mixture. So did the citric acid and washing soda.

My hypothesis change because I thought it was baking soda and table salt but they had no reaction after testing I found 2 stuff that looks like the mystery mix, but my first guess is baking soda and citric acid, because it bubble, fizz, color change, temperature change, and it left a white residue.

Dylan Foster

At first I thought it was baking soda and salt because they looked the same as the mystery mixture, but when we tested them I realized that they didn't cause a chemical reaction. So then we tried sodium bicarbonate and citric acid, when we added water to that mixture it had the same chemical reaction as the mystery mixture and they looked the same afterward.

Madi Moss

We no longer think it is baking soda & sugar. We now think it is Citric Acid & Sodium Bicarbonate. They both fizzed close to the same and put together with water look close to the same. After a little bit we could barely tell the differance

Christian Heuer

My hypothesis has stayed the same as my first because it had the same effect as the mystery substance it was citric acid and baking soda because it bubble and fizz and was cold after and it looked like sprite almost exactly like the mystery substance.

salt and baking soda

Madison Kessler

I still think that the mystery mixture is baking soda and citric acid because when we tried them it did the same thing as the mystery mixture when we added water and my guess did not change.

Dylan Fuchs

I Think the Mystery mixture is citric acid and baking soda because it fizzed it changed a bit color wise and and bubbled and right after i stopped bubbling we pick up the little pad let and see if it changed temperature and it did

DEANNA DAY

I thing it is baking soda because it is fluffy and sicrakre.

Delaney Kent

I think the mystery mixture is Citric Acid and Sodium Carbonate because they had the same chemical reaction. When we added water to the mystery mixture it fizzed and bubbled and that is the same thing that happened when we added water to Citric Acid and Sodium Carbonate.

Citric acid and sodium chloride is what we know it was baking soda and sugar but then we looked at it again and we saw different mixture.

Dylan Gray

I still think it is citric acid and baking soda because we tested them and got the same reaction a the mystery mixture

Kimberly Kurek

I think the mystery mixture is citric acid and baking soda because It bubbled, changed color, and the temperature changed colder. My hypothesis changed because at first I thought it was baking soda and table salt when we just looked at the powder but then I realized that baking soda and table salt it did not have the same reaction as the mystery mixture.

I think that the mystery mixture is sodium bicarbonate and ascorbic acid because when we mixed them together they had the same reaction.

Memphis Blevens

After we poured the substances in(Citric acid and calcium carbonate) together it made bubbles then fizzed soon after the fizz was gone and the was only a few bubbles and the mystery mixture looked the same so i thought we got it .
