Horrible Science!!

An experiment to discover what happens to egg shells when left in a variety of liquids

In Science we have been thinking about our teeth and how we can keep them healthy. Both classes planned and conducted an experiment to see what would happen to egg shells when left in a variety of liquids. The liquids chosen were: water, vinegar, milk, fresh orange juice, blackcurrant squash and cola.

We were shocked at the results!

Our discovery was that the most damage was caused by the orange juice, cola and vinegar. The water caused the least damage.

We are now trying to work out why this might be.
