Popcorn Lab*


             Yesterday Logan, Kendra, and I composed a lab that cooked popcorn. the first thing we did was: add vegetable oil into a 1000-ml beaker to cover the bottom. Then make a tight fitting cover for the beaker from the aluminum foil, then weigh the beaker, oil cover and record the mass which was 200g. Next, we added 30 kernels of popcorn to the beaker and replace the lid. And weigh the beaker with popcorn inside it and recorded the mass which was 204g. Then I poke holes in the foil and placed it on the ring stand to pop. When it finished popping we removed the foil from the top. Then let it cool off and weigh he beaker with the popcorn inside it, and recorded the mass which as 202g.
