Oops! Now Where's That Napkin?

CSEF · 2002 Materials Science (Junior Division Only)

Lauren N. Estrada, Eleanor S. Prack, Vanessa M. Villanueva · Hazelton Elementary, Stockton

Overview

Objectives/Goals Our objective is to see which common beverage will leave the darkest stain after washing. We think that the chocolate milk will leave a darker stain than grape juice, orange juice, and fruit punch. Methods/Materials After applying 40ml of each liquid to seperate new, white cotton baby t-shirts. The t-shirts were washed individually in plastic tubs. Observations show that after washing, the chocolate milk left the darkest stain. Results We found that the chocolate milk and orange juice do not wash out of the white t-shirts. The grape juice and the fruit punch were completely washed off of the t-shirts. Conclusions/Discussion In conclusion, our hypothesis did match our results. Chocolate milk did leave the darkest stain on the baby t-shirts.

Summary statement

We wanted to know which common beverage left the darkest stain on white baby t-shirts.

Help received

Eleanor's Mother helped us plan our project and let us work at her school. Mr. Balderston lent us a graduated cylinder, let us do our science experiment in class, and helped us with the project abstract.
