Can a solution of sugar or salt turn into a solid?
To help us answer this question, we ran an experiment. We used hot water to help with the evaporation process and sugar or salt to form a solution. After a few weeks, we concluded that the salt solution did in fact turn into a solid. As a class, we had a lengthy discussion on why the sugar did not form a solid. As scientists, we agreed that we may not have used enough sugar, or perhaps we used too much water.
The Red River cart was developed by Metis and was made entirely of nonmetallic parts!
