Dissolving Peeps

This week we learned about dissolving!  I decided that we would try to dissolve Peeps since I had some left over from Easter and it was something fun to watch take place.  We started the experiment by choosing what cup we thought would dissolve the peep first.  We had water, rubbing alcohol, vinegar, diet coke, and laundry soap. 

 

 
 
 

 
 
We waited one week.  Results are in...
Vinegar dissolved the Peep the quickest!
Water made the Peep mold
Rubbing Alcohol preserved the Peep - there was NOTHING wrong with it!
Diet Coke was eating the Peep and it looked like a lung with cancer - it was nasty!
Laundry Soap looked like Jell-O at the end of the week!
