photo credit:Jessica Guillen
Ingredients:
a cup of milk
two tablespoon of sugar
1/2 a teaspoon of vanilla extract
I put chocolate syrup :o) ( a choice you have)
salt and ice
Procedure
put a cup full of milk in a ziploc bag. then add two tablespoons of sugar.
Then 1/2 a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Add your chocolate syrup into the bad. Then make sure that no air is in the ziploc bag, and make sure to cloe it correctly.
Get a bigger bag fill it with ice and salt,put the smaller ziploc bag in the bigger bag.
Shake and mix until ur ice cream is ready!!!!
SCIENCE???
when the salt and walter are combine, and are near liquid, it will make the liquid into solid because of the temperature!

Chemistry Standard 11e
Standard 11e:Students know alpha, beta, and gamma radiation produce different amounts and kinds of damage in matter and have different penetrations
So there are three types of radiation ALPHA, BETA, and GAMMA
Information about the types of radiation
Alpha Radiation:
a type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits analpha particle, and thereby transforms (or 'decays') into an atom with a mass number 4 less and atomic number 2 less.
sign: α
Their Damage:
*Alpha radiation is not able to penetrate skin
*Alpha-emitting materials can be harmful to humans if they are inside the body,in your system.
Beta Radiation:
a type of radioactive decay in which a beta particle (an electron or a positron) is emitted.
In the example of electron emission, it is referred to as beta minus (β⁻),
In a positron, emission as beta plus (β+)
Sign: β
Their Damage:
*Beta radiation can have a bearable penetration but it you have too much it can be harmful
*Beta radiation can penetrate human skin to the "germinal layer," where new skin cells are produced
Gamma Radiation:
is electromagnetic radiation of high frequency (very short wavelength)
Also knows as Gamma rays
Sign: γ
Their Damage:
*Gamma radiation is able to travel many centimeters in human tissue and in the air as well.
*X-rays are like gamma rays as well.
They can too be a penetrating radiation.

Mini Project numero DEUX! Co-Mentos
photo credit: Muah,me,yo!
Ingredients
Minted flavored Mentos
Diet coke
Directions:
Open a liter of diet coke
put mentos in it really fast
step away and experience the awesomeness of what to reactants can do!
Science:
Dropping some Mentos into the bottle, putting aat least more than four, causes the Diet Coke to foam at a rapid rate and spew into the air. The mentos take away the carbon dioxide from the diet coke making it explode and look like a fire cracker!

Mini Project numero UNO! making play doh!
photo credit: Karissa Lobos
Ingredients
2-3 cups Flour
1 and 1/2 cups Salt
2-3 cups Water
2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
1 tablespoons Cream of tartar
few drops Food coloring few drops( i chosed pink ;o)
Directions/procedure:
Mix ALL of the ingredients in a large saucepan.
Cook over medium low heat, until the dough comes away from the edges of the pan and it becomes difficult to move the spoon.
Remove from heat. Let it cool down and then it can be handled.
Place on counter or wax paper knead 3-4 times.
if its still mushy and still sticks on your hand add some more flour and salt and mix it
Store in an air tight container.
NOW THE CIENCA part!
When we are making the playdoh, it's hot, so when we touch it, it's all squishy and very flexible. But, if we leave it out and let it cool, the molecules packs up and then it hardens, so when we touch it, it is hard. The heat releases when the temperature cools down

"I Propose We" learn how to make an omelet
Links
http://answers.yahoo.com
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5376064721325212387#
Materials
- 2-5 eggs
- Frying pan
- Milk
- butter
- Something to beat your eggs with (mixer, fork, wire whisk)
- Flipper or spatula
- Salt and pepper
- Omelette fillings
- Cheese, shredded
- Onions or green onions, chopped
- Tomatoes, diced
- green and red pepper
- Ham, turkey, or bacon
- Any other vegetables such as spinach, asparagus, carrots, etc.
1. Gather and prepare your omelet filling ingredients. Eggs cook quickly, so it is best to select and cut up all of your ingredients before you start to cook. Chop these into bite-size pieces. Use any or all of the ingredients, in a combination of your choice.
2. Break the eggs. Its best to crack your eggs one at a time in a bowl or a cup (this will keep bad ones from getting mixed in), and not put them directly in the frying pan. Put them into a glass or plastic bowl. After breaking the eggs and completely mixing them(the yolks and the whites), be sure to wash your hands.
3. Place your other ingredients together in a separate bowl and lightly stir them to mix up the ingredients. Set aside some shredded cheese.
4. Pour about a tablespoon of butter onto the pan. Put the heat on low to medium heat, and pour on the eggs, spreading them evenly with a spatula
5. Take three-quarters of your ingredients, and evenly sprinkle them over the eggs. Do this while the eggs are firm on the bottom, but still slightly runny on top.
6. Pay special attention that the eggs are not sticking to the bottom of the pan, and use your flipper or spatula around the edges of the omelet to make sure that it is not sticking. Gently roll the sides of your omelet, about an inch or two
7. Roll your omelet onto your plate, or use the spatula and lift it onto your plate
8. Place the remaining ingredients on top, and sprinkle with cheese.
Precautions-Don't ever put your hand near the stove of frying pan because it will be hott!!!
- Make sure the temperature of the fire does not exceed medium temperature.
Scientific Principles
- the combination of two or more ingredients making a different one.
-The egg going from liquid point to solid point with heat
and this is how your omelet will look like !!!

David Webb and Joan Webb
Wednesday presentation was soo awesome. Learning the pressure in the atmosphere, and how objects have higher pressure in the atmosphere. With the help of gravity. One of the cool experiments that he did was the shaving cream. He put some shaving cream in a cup and put it in his pressure decreaser and he took all the atmosphere out and it the shaving cream started to increase and get white.it was awesome!!!fluids flow from high to low pressure!!!at 14.7 square feet!!lol
Star Testing
I really don't like star testing! At my old school we didn't have to test this test for more than two weeks because it was private and it wasn't a requirement.I cant wait when i am a senior and i dont have to take this test anymore.Its gonna be a releaze of stress off of me! feel bad for the freshmen who have to take the test the whole week, wait i mean the sophomores they have to take all days. I cant wait to relaxe.just relax!!..........
Changes in pressure!!!!
When the moles of gaseous reactants not equal the moles of gaseous products...
Increase in pressure shifts the reaction in the direction that produces the smaller number of moles of gas.
Decrease in pressure shifts the reaction in the direction that that produces the larger number of moles of gas

Difficulty in Chem
I think the most trouble that i am having in chemistry is that there is a lot of formulas that you have to memorize to solve problems and there is a lot of rules and guidelines that you have to follow... There is a lot, a lot of calculation that you have to do and it can be hard and confusing!!!!!thats very fustrating!

"Like Dissolves Like"
What it think dissolving is when solute dissolves the solvent.Foe example water and sugar mixing together. The water is the solute and the sugar is the solvent.
Like dissolves like is when a substance is dissolved with something similar to each other. Like if its non polar it will only dissolve with non polar
