a) The question we're trying to answer was to identify electrons in energy excited stage, while finding certain common metals and identifying unknown ones with a fire test. b)What we did during our investigation was get coated toothpicks that had a coating of the certain metal and put it through a lit bunson burner to find out the color it was giving, the reason we were doing it like this was to identify the metals beforehand, then try and identify the unknown ones by matching the certain color shades. c)My claim was that the first one we did (unknown 1) was sodium the second one (unknown 2) is barium, the third one (unknown 3) strontium and last (unknown 4) was potassium. For my evidence I made a list on paper that showed the substances (copper.etc) matched with the color given on paper. For bold is substance and color is normal font. Calcium - dark orange Burium - yellow green Lithium - red Potassium - peach Sodium - sunset orange strongium - orange red uk(unknown) 1 -

1) The tasks I have completed recently is of identifying isotopes and identifying atomic mass. 2) I have learned that  isotopes usually make the mass number of element and that it's protons and neutrons together. 3)I plan on remembering it more better and remembering also how to find two isotopes and there abundances to get there atomic mass.

a) What question were you trying to answer and why? The question we were answering is was 'What is the atomic mass of beanium?'. Since beanium was recently discovered element and to practice finding the atomic number and finding the mass and percentage. b) What did you do during your investigation and why did you conduct your investigation in this way? What I did during the investigation was finding the mass of each different type of bean and there percentage. We conducted this way because, it'll help us add all the beans up and than do the atomic # formula. c) What is your claim, evidence, and reasoning? Our claim was to justify the atomic mass of beanium. The evidence was our data table of the numbers and percentages we got. Our reasoning was, we had found the visulization of each bean and their clarification in order to find the atomic mass.  The Evidence Data Download
