woah study-freak you are really helpful. The reason I'm not doing the other project is because my friend in year 11 suggested to measure something like observations instead of quantitative measurements. Plus, it seemed too hard to do and to get all the materials. Sorry, but I did not understand the part where you said to put all the breads, do you mean like put the whole loaf of bread outside or just one slice? One more thing, what would be a good hypothesis for this experiment?
Thanks for all your help study-freak
+good luck on your HSC this year! I hope you get 99.9% UAI. Not 100% cause then you're a freak!
LOL I wish I am capable of being the 'freak' though.
Anyway, well yea, qualitative ones will surely be easier than quantitative ones and I can assure you that no one would actually do something like calorimetry in yr10 coz it's just too hard.
So about the bread, you can either place just a slice or a loaf of bread outside, but one slice will become quite dry soon. I am not sure if dry bread can still mould (perhaps, you can test it) so I guess it's prob better to put a loaf of bread outside but I am not sure which one the better way is.
And I am not really sure about the hypothesis but it's supposed to be just an educated guess and will probably be worth only 1 mark.
If I were to write the hypothesis I would say: "Different types of bread vary in the composition and so will mould at different rates. The more wet and fatty(like, lots of butter in it) the bread is, the faster it is expected to mould. Moreover, the more the preservatives, the slower the rate will be."
Not sure it's a good one to use though.
Anyway, good luck with the experiment and SC!
