3.6 Special observations
We found out that crushed ice works better than ice cubes itself. Not only that, we also found out that the more salt that we used, the lower the temperature of the ice bath. During the experiment, we found out that if the concentration of salt is too high, it cannot be frozen. Because of that, the ratio of salt to water in the solution is different than the one that is stated in our group proposal. Also, ice works better in the glass beaker as the ice bath as compared to a styrofoam box as we can observe the experiment better. We also have less base area so we have more water height and that allows for more surface area in contact with the test tube.
