MYSTERY ELEMENT

2013-10-23 18:43:55 UTC

We believe that the mystery element was Na+.

Why does this happen?

2013-10-23 18:49:51 UTC

This happens because each element has a certain number of atoms and each element has its'own color.

What happened?

2013-10-23 18:50:44 UTC

As we burned each chemical stick, a certain color appeared and then the stick eventually caught on fire and the flame would start to turn yellow

How did you determine your unknown chemical?

2013-10-23 18:50:58 UTC

The ion we determinded on was NA+.

The only bright orange color there was in the experement

Which ESLR?

2013-10-23 18:57:33 UTC

We used effective communication.

All of us have helped out to complete the project. Simon would take pictures and post them. Mazie would fill in the chart and Mo would help test the elemets.

What is it that you are doing?

2013-10-23 19:02:33 UTC

We are testing chemicals and seeing which element it is.

How did you do it?

2013-10-23 19:07:37 UTC

We added chemicals to a stick and burnt it to see what color it would produce.
