More From My Science Project

Question or Problem

Which stain will work better on the stains?


Hypothesis

My hypothesis is that the Extra detergent will work the best on getting the satins out of the clothing.


Material List

Shirt
Markers
Ketchup
Mustard
Grass
Extra Detergent
All Detergent
Dynamo Detergent
Water
Scrubbing Item


Procedure

Step1: Lay the shirt out straight
Step 2: Take one of the stains ex. Ketchup
Step 3: Take one of the detergents and put just enough to cover the entire stain.
Step 4: Take you item that you are using to scrub the stains and scrub the stain (When scrubbing the stain, make sure you add pressure to it. Each time that you scrub any of the stains, make sure you add the same amount of pressure each and every time.)
Step 5: While you are scrubbing the stain, add enough water so that it covers the stain.
Step 6: Once you add the water, continue to scrub the stain for 3 more minutes.
Step 7: Once you have completed this record your results.
Step 8: Label the stain and the detergent that you used with a marker that way you won’t loose your place.
Step 9: Repeat all of the above steps until every stain and detergent is used three times, once per stain.




Data Table


Data Table did not show up correctly, but everything else is here.


Results/Observation


In this experiment, I observed that the grass was the hardest stain to remove. The ketchup and the mustard was very hard as well but they most likely had different results in and every time used a different detergent. The Dynamo detergent did the least amount of work removing the stain form the clothing. I also observed that the Extra and the All detergent worked almost the same.


Conclusion

My hypothesis was in correct. I stated that the Extra detergent would work the best and, when doing the project, event though they had similar results, the All detergent worked out the best on the stains.
