Alchemy - Science

Today in science we studied alchemy. The aim was to try and turn a copper coin into gold. The equipment we needed was: 

• Copper coin
• Bunsen burner
• Tripod
• Heat mat
• Gauze mat
• 50ml beaker
• Scissor tongs
• Zinc metal
• Zinc Nitrate solution

My group is Jeff, Callum and me

Here are photos we took:

• putting in the Zinc Nitrate solution

I was actually hoping the coin would change gold, I thought it would but it didn't.
it was fun changing the coins colours.
Have a good week end.
