Welcome To Daisy Romero's Science Project Page = = = Research Question: If we change the type of liquid soap will it affect, how much oil will it remove? = =media type="custom" key="16629356"= = Notes: = === In this project I am determining if Dawn, a dish detergent, is the best to use when trying to remove oil off of ducks. I choose two different dish detergents; Dawn and Palmolive. I bought fake feathers and covered them with oil. I then put them in a container with dish detergent. I visually determined which dish detergent was the best. Dawn removed most of the oil and appeared to be the gentlest on the feathers. === = =

= Questions:What will happen if we put more oil than soap will Dawn still work? = = = = Answers: = = =

Hypothesis: We think that Dawn soap is going remove more oil because it is used to clean oily animals.
= = = Materials: = = = == == = = = Procedure: =
 * = Bottle of Oil =
 * = 2 different liquid soaps ( Dawn & Palmolive ) =
 * = Bird Feathers =
 * = Measuring Spoons =
 * = 3 containers =
 * === 1) Get three containers. Label one container (Dawn Soap) with stickies, label the second container (Palmolive Soap), and finally label the last container (Oil Only). ===


 * === 2) Put 10 feathers in each container, weigh them with the scale, and record your results. ===


 * === 3) Leave the feathers in the container and put 1 tablespoon of oil on the feathers in each container. ===


 * === 4) Leave the feathers with the oil in the container and let them sit for 5 minutes. ===


 * === 5) After 5 min, put 1 tablespoon of Dawn in the container labeled Dawn Soap and Palmolive in the container labeled Palmolive Soap. ===


 * === 6) Rub the feathers 25 times with 16.9 oz water bottle until all of the oil solution and soap has been removed in each container. ===


 * === 7) Finally,after the feathers are dry weigh the feathers from each container separately and record your results. ===


 * === 8) Then, look at all your results and determine which soap removed the most oil. ===


 * === 9) Repeat the experiment 3 times for accurate results. ===

=== Results: Dawn soap worked better than Palmolive soap because it is also used for cleaning oily animals too than just dishes. Our hypothesis was correct, we thought that Dawn was going to work better than Palmolive because people have discovered that it removes the most oil in animals covered in oil. === = = = = = Data Collection: = = = = Summary Paragraph: Our project was about determining which soap will remove the most oil on feathers covered in oil. Dawn removed the most oil on the feathers than Palmolive. I think it removed the most oil from the feathers because of the chemicals that it has that are powerful than Palmolive. I think that Dawn worked better because maybe it has the most chemicals that are stronger than Palmolive. = = = = Bibliography: = = Prezi: =
