On monday we took the lids of our jars because we thought that might speed up the evaporation process a little bit. But today (Wednesday) my rock candy group decided to check on our experiment. We were pleased to see that one of the rock candies has been starting to crystalize it was a group experiment one. It was kind of sad the the other five of ours did not work but I am not that surprised because we used a different formula on that rock candy it was the ratio 3 parts sugar and 1 part water. Also that was the only one that we did not add flavoring to. I think it crystalized because it was amore concentrated solution. Where as the ones with less sugar basically stayed the same consistency as when we started. The experiment has been siting undisturbed for 8 days. The candy looked really beautiful it was a dark purple color. There was not many crystals on the piece of string but a lot on the edges of the jar. I am so happy that our group on actually crystalized. We felt very accomplished because we are the only group in this chemistry class that has successful rock candy.
