Hurumanu-Water cycle

Hurumanu: The Water Cycle

AIM: TO LEARN ABOUT WATER ON EARTH.

Definition:

Scientific words:

• Evaporation. When water is heated by radiant energy it turns into water vapor.
• Transpiration. Evaporation from plants.
• Condensation. When water vapour cools, molecules join together and form clouds.
• Precipitation. When clouds get heavy the waters falls as rain, sleet, hail, or snow.
• Acidification: the action or process of making or becoming acidic.

THE WATER CYCLE SONG

THE WATER CYCLE EXPERIMENT

Bag 1: Normal Water cycle

Bag 2: Water cycle with CO2 added: like Oceans in climate change

Bag 3: Water cycle with ice added: like Antarctica in climate change

Material:

1.  2 Large ziplock bag
2.  Blue food colouring 
3.  Water
4.   Vivid
5. Baking soda
6. Litmus paper

Steps:

First bag

1.  Grab a ziplock bag
2.  Draw the water cycle on it with the professional names
3.  Pour water into the zip lock bag and seal it.

Second bag

1.  Grab a ziplock bag
2.  Draw the water cycle on it with the professional names
3.  Pour water into the zip lock bag 
4. Put 2 drops of blue food colouring into the bag
5. Put the litmus paper just inside the bag but with a little bit hanging out so that it doesn't fall into the bag
6. Seal the bag up

Findings:

I found out that condensation can start anywhere like in a bag and in the air when I didn't know that it was in the air as well because I couldn't see it.

	The Water Cycle	Acid Water Cycle
Does it cycle?	1	1
Amount of Water	2	2
Acidity	0	1

Key: Water and acidity amount: 0 = none 

1 = small 

2 = large 

Conclusion:

I have found out that it cycles small and that the amount of water if large. The Acidity is small in the water cycle, it is  0 because there was no acid put into it and that the Acid water cycle is 1 because we did put baking soda in it but it wasn't a lot.
