My Westport trip

Hello fellow readers and welcome to my blog about my trip to Westport.I had to leave at 7am on Saturday morning and spent the night at the Caravan park in Westport. We passed through Reefton which was an old township then we went on a old swingbridge that crossed the river. While in Westport I did the following Cape Foulwind,Fur seals,coaltown museum,swimming and Denniston mine which was a working mine in the 19th and 20th century.

There was some old mining buckets and rail tracks with lots of coal still on the ground. There was a steep incline with rail tracks on it that took the coal buckets down to the river bank and into Westport.

The Fur seals are at Tauranga Bay near Cape Foulwind. These Fur seals are a year round colony when we went they where malting and growing pups one of the Fur seals was in the ocean playing and one was playing on its back in a lagoon and some of the Fur seals were sleeping on the rocks.

At Cape Foulwind there was a lighthouse that used to guide ships in and tell them were the rocks were.

Then we drove the ocean view road to Greymouth where we went rock collecting on the beach and we went swimming at the indoor pool centre then we had lunch and then we went home to Christchurch. We got home about 8pm that night.

As we were driving to Westport and Greymouth we spotted 55 waterfalls along the way and on our  way back across Arthurs pass there was snow landing on top of the mountains and small hail balls were landing on our car.

What is that white powder?

Today you will be a forensic chemist. 

A bag of white powder has been confiscated by the airport customs.  You need to find out what white powder it is?

Aim: To learn about the makeup of different white powders.

There are  a number of different white powders in our everyday life. Some of these are harmful and others are not. Test the four white powders listed to see which one has been found at the airport.

Here are some examples of everyday kitchen white powders.

Flour, Cornflour, Sugar, Salt, Baking Soda, Baking Powder, Icing Sugar, Tartaric Acid

Citric Acid, Gluten Free flour

You will be given a small amount of 4 white powders on your cardboard. On the black cardboard using a magnifying glass look at the powders.

Look at them under your magnifying glass and record what you see. 

These are the four powders we will be using. Upload a photo of each powder. 

1.  Cornflour

3. Ones you have draw the lines on the paper you can put the Baking Soda in one of the boxes then put the Cornflour in the other one next put the Sugar in the second to last one then in the last box you can put the Salt and then you can put them into three group's.

4. Then ones that is done you can see what it looks like and the texture of it and the smell of it but when you get to put the idine on and the wateron and the vingar on you must put them on separate ones.
