Name Date Class Laboratory Activity 2 (continued) Hands-On Activities Part C 1. Dissolve 1/2 spoonful of Epsom salts in a test tube of water. 2. Dissolve 1/2 spoonful of washing soda in another test tube of water. 3. Observe what the mixtures in both test tubes look like. 4. Begin pouring the Epsom salts mixture into the petri dish near one edge of the dish. 5. At the opposite edge of the petri dish, begin pouring the washing soda mixture into the dish. 6. Observe what happens where the two mixtures meet. Record your observations in the table in the Data and Observations section. Part D 1. Place a dull, copper penny in the bottom of a petri dish. 2. Sprinkle salt over the top of the penny. Then use a dropper to cover the top of the penny with vinegar. Observe any changes in the penny.
