= Day 1 Report: =

Observations

 * // Wooden penguin is missing early this morning - can't be found //
 * //A note was left//
 * //Black felt pens were collected from suspects//
 * //Mr.Hood had a penguin picture on his smart board//
 * //Mr.Bile had a "no penguin" picture hanging on the wall//
 * //Paper chormatography paper is being used to test out the writing//
 * //Mrs.Laguna was very nervous//

Background Information

 * // **__mixture:__** a substance made by mixing other substances together. //
 * // **__solution:__** a mixture in which two or more substances are so completely blended & eventually distributed that you can't identify the different parts. //
 * //**__paper chromatography:__** an analytical method for separating and identifying mixtures that are or can be colored, especially pigments. This can also be used in secondary or primary colors in ink experiments.//
 * //**__fractional distillation:__** separation of a liquid mixture in fractions differing in boiling points by means of distillation, typically using a fractional column.//

Inferences or Hypothesis

 * //Mrs.Laguna set up this whole crime and framed someone else because she seems very nervous about the entire situation.//

Tests Preformed

 * 1) // Chromatography Test //

Data

 * Mrs.Kirschman:** //The ink did not change.//
 * Mrs.Cravener:** //The ink separated into a blue and orange.//
 * Mr.Lancos:** //The ink separated into a blue, purple and pink.//
 * Mrs.Rhodes:** //The ink separated into blue, purple, and pink.//
 * Mr.Hood:** //The ink separated into blue and black.//

Pictures


**Conclusions**
 * // Whoever stole the penguin used a black felt pen. By testing the ransom note, we can find the culprit. //

= Day 2 Report: =

Observations

 * //The penguin was found outside the office//

Background Information

 * Mr.Hood, Mrs.Rhodes, Mr.Lancos, Mrs.Cravener, Mrs.Kirschmen, and Mrs.Laguna are all suspects
 * //Whoever wrote the ransom note is the thief//

Inferences or Hypothesis

 * Once the ransom note is tested, the pen that matches the colors within the ransom note is guilty.

Tests Preformed

 * 1) Paper Chromatography Test On Ransom Note

Data
__Paper Chromatography Test On Ransom Note:__
 * Mrs.Kirschman:** No match
 * Mrs.Cravener:** No match
 * Mr.Lancos:** //Somewhat similar//
 * Mrs.Rhodes:** No match
 * Mr.Hood:** No match

Conclusions
//Mr.Lancos' pen had similarities to the ransom note, but the actual thief is yet to be found.//

= Day 3 Report: =

Observations

 * //condensations gathered in test tube//
 * //bubbling & fizzing in test tube//
 * //boiling in test tube//
 * //liquid collected in collection tube//

Background Information

 * Another pen (owned by Mrs.Cravener) was discovered and its chromatography test matched the ransom note's chromatography test
 * //Water has a boiling point of 100 degrees Celsius//

Inferences or Hypothesis

 * //Mrs.Laguna framed Mrs.Cravener with the mystery pen that matched the ransom note because Mrs.Cravener acted innocent when confronted.//

Test Performed

 * 1) // The Heating Curve Lab //

Data

 * //There were 2 points where the temperatures leveled off//
 * //Overall, the temperature increased as time increased//

Conclusions

 * //Mrs.Cravener was either framed, or she is truly the thief.//

= Day 4 Report: = =Observations=
 * //condensation in test tube//
 * //bubbling in test tube//
 * //boiling of the liquid//
 * //all of the collection tubes collected liquid, but in different amounts//

Background Information

 * //The lab will take as long as the Heating Curve Lab//
 * //Liquid will collect in ALL of the collection tubes (A,B AND C)//

Inferences or Hypothesis

 * //The three test tubes will all have collected a different amount of liquid because of the time that they are going to be switched.//

Test Performed

 * 1) //Fractional Distillation Lab//

Data

 * **//A://** //Collected the least amount of liquid//
 * //**B:** Collected the most amount of liquid//
 * **//C://** //Collected some liquid//

Conclusions

 * //We are going to use the liquids to find out **whodunnit**//

= Day 5 Report: = =Observations=
 * If flammable, the wooden splints would catch fire right away

Background Information

 * //By heating the mystery liquid in the test tube in the Fraction Distillation Lab, we ended up with "**fractions"**//
 * //Do not hold the match to the wooden splint for an extended period of time, or else the data will be false//

Inferences or Hypothesis

 * //All of the fractions will react differently to the flammability test, and will all be different densities.//

Test Performed

 * 1) //Flammability Test//
 * 2) //Density Test//

Data

 * Fraction || Flammability Test || Density Test (m/v) ||
 * A. || Yes || 0.77 ||
 * B. || No || 0.86 ||
 * C. || No || 0.86 ||

Conclusions

 * //Fractions B & C were not flammable, and both held the same densities while fraction A was flammable, and held a different density//

=Whodunnit?=
 * **//Mrs.Cravener//**
 * //The pen that matched the ransom note's chromatography was found in Mrs.Cravener's classroom//
 * //She used paper chromatography paper to write the memo note//
 * //She acted clueless about the whole thing, which is what guilty people do//
 * //All leads to Mr.Bile, Mr.Hood, Mrs.Kirschman, Mr.Lancos, Mrs.Laguna, and Mr.Lancos seemed to run dry//
