Water Cycle Demo

What did we use?

- flask with hot water in it
- 6 mL of salt
- 500 mL water
- 1000 mL beaker
- 25 mL beaker
- a few ice cubes
- 75-100 bee-bees 
- rubber band

Procedures?

- Combined 6 mL of Morton Salt with 500 mL of hot water
- Put a smaller beaker inside of the big one so it will float
- Put a plastic wrap over the containers to keep the heat inside
- Add a few ice cubes on top of the plastic wrap
- Take about 75-100 bee-bees and add them to the small beaker that is floating in order to weigh it down 
- Wrap a rubber band around the beaker to keep the heat in
