• We form our pipe in to
a three dimensional
shape and used an
analytical balance.
• Boil the water up to
85-100 degree
Celsius using a 500
ml beaker.
• We dissolved a 90
grams pulverized
alum in a hot water
container. After
that, we gently stir
the solution.
• We added food colour
to our solution.
• This solution stand
for at least 24 hours
in our chemistry
laboratory.
• After 24 hours,
here is the output
that we did.
 As what the procedure said, we
need to add another 30 g of
dissolved alum crystal heated on
100 degree Celsius.

See what happened next!

• The Crystal made in
dissolved Alum
increased its size.
 See the
difference
between two
crystals!
