Gobstopper Lab What will happen when Gobstoppers are placed in water? Copy any pink writing on your paper.

Hypothesis If _______________ then ________________ because _____________________. You fill in the blanks.

Gobstopper Lab Directions Place all four gobstoppers in the solution at the same time. Start the timer once the gobstoppers have been placed in the solution. Record what the gobstoppers looked like at zero. Check the gobstoppers at the designated times and continue recording your data. DO NOT BUMP THE TABLE (or disturb the bowl)

Experiment Independent variable: ___________________ Constants: _____________________

Quantitative Observations Qualitative Observations Gobstopper Lab Data Time (minutes) Quantitative Observations Qualitative Observations (initial) 1 2 3 4

Conclusion -Determine if the data collected supports your hypothesis. Was your hypothesis correct? Use at least one sentence.
