Ocean Acidification 2017

So far what i have learnt about ocean acidifiction

Ocean Acidification (coral reef) Experiment!

• Salt

• Marble stone
• A lot of water
• Egg shell
• Chicken bones or some type of smallish bones

What has happened so far

We have added marble chips to two different beakers

Triangular Beaker

• we put in  two tablespoons of salt

• 17 pounds of marble chips
• five drops of sulfuric acid

Normal Beaker

• We put in two tablespoons of salt
• 17 pounds of marble chips
• And five drops or hydrogen something acid we have done a couple of experiments this one is have recorded the results for

Normal beaker with a star on it

• We have just got two tablespoons of salt
• 17 pounds of marble chips
• And we are going to see what difference the acids make on the marbles

We are going to let this sit and see what different types of acids have effects on the marble chips

Results:

Got some marble chips and soaked them in different types of liquids. Water, hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid and  and put a few teaspoons of salt in each beaker.  We are testing how strong they are after being soaked for over 3 days. We found that the marble chips soaked in water was the strongest, then next to it was the marble chips soaked in hydrochloric acid and the weakest was the sulphuric acid. This shows that  when given the chance to survive, in a clean environment that Any living organism with a marble stone like outer shell, they have more of a chance to grow strong and bigger

Unlike when being placed in an chemical environment and the shell to be slowly disintegrating into a crushed crystal like substance
