Experiment Blog

The first experiment I tested was the store bought bubbles and the average was 16 seconds in the air before it popped. The second experiment I did was adding corn syrup to the homemade bubble mixture and it wasn't the best.  The average was 12 seconds and I think it was the worst because the corn syrup is a heavy liquid and it weighed down the bubbles too much.  The last experiment I did was adding glycerin to the bubble mixture and it turned out to be the best. It was the best because it had the best average 88 sec.  My hypothesis was correct because the glycerin bubble mixture had the highest average of time before it popped.

My hypothesis is that out of the three types of bubbles that  the homemade with the glycerin added will last the longest without popping because the glycerin feels oily and will help the bubble with its elasticity by making it a stronger bubble.  Which one do you think will last longest in the air?

My Science Fair Project

My science fair project is to find out which bubbles will last longest in the air.  The independent variables are either homemade with glycerin added, homemade with corn syrup added, or store bought bubbles.
