Sugar Solution Visual

Observation
No sugar crystal growth.
No sugar crystal growth.

5 (25th
F)

No sugar crystal growth.

7 (27th F)

No sugar crystal growth.

9 (1st M)

No sugar crystal growth.

11 (3rd
M)

Very small sugar crystals on

the surface of the glass.

13 (5th
M)

Sugar crystals thriving on the

surface of the solution in a
rigid formation; medium
sized.

15 (7th
M)

Large sugar crystals cover

entire surface of the sugar
solution.

17 (9th
M)

Sugar crystals are very large

now. The sugar crystals have
begun to accumulate on the
bottom of the glass and the
sides.
Sugar crystals are increasing
rapidly and their sizes are
increasing too. The largest
crystal is nearly 6 mm long.

19 (11th
M)

21 (13th
M)

The sugar crystals on the

surface have formed in a
very rigid structure, that is
disables the wooden skewer

Salt Solution Visual

Observation
No salt crystal growth.
Very small salt crystals on the
wooden skewer. Transparent in
colour.
Medium salt crystals on the
wooden skewer; fully covered.
White in colour. Salt crystals
forming on the surface and sinking
to the bottom of the glass.
Salt crystals have doubled in
growth. Increased salt crystals on
the bottom of the glass.
Concentration of red food colouring
is seeming less.
Salt crystals growing on top of preexisting sugar crystals on wooden
skewer. Salt crystals thriving more
on the bottom of glass than on the
wooden skewer.
Red salt solution is being absorbed
into the wooden skewer and very
small salt crystals are forming
above the surface of the solution.
Light-red salt crystals are being
formed on the wooden skewer
above the surface. Light-red sugar
crystals are forming on the sides of
the glass above the surface of the
solution.
Salt growth slowing. Light-red
crystals are very rigid and formed
very close together. Mimics rock
candy. Red colour concentration is
less than before.
The growth rate is increasing
rapidly. Salt growth is decreasing.
Light-red salt crystals are thriving
and are approximately 1 cm in
diameter.
The salt crystals on the wooden
skewer are still white, while the
ones above the solution surface
are light-red and very firmly
attached.
The light-red crystals on the sides
of the glass have rose to
approximately 3.4 cm higher than
surface level.

from moving. There are 5

small sugar crystals on the
wooden skewer.
