Science Experiment : Does Oil and Water Mix?

Today we asked the question: What happens when oil is added to water?

                 Our hypothesis were:
                                1. water will change colour
                                2. there will be an explosion ( this is what we really wanted to happen!!)



First we each got a cup of water and added a few drops of oil - then we watched like a scientist. We noticed that the oil sat on top of the water so we used a stir stick to mix . Next we watched like scientist again. The oil still sat on the top but in little bubbles. We noticed that no matter how much we stirred the oil would not mix with the water.

 After we watched like a scientist we recorded our findings by drawing what we saw

 We only had one small spill and it was a quick and easy clean up !
