5Red attempts the impossible!

We were given the challenge of trying to get a hard-boiled egg into a glass bottle! As you can see it was never going to happen!! After much discussion we came up with the idea that heat was going to help us complete this challenge ... So ... lighting a piece of paper and dropping it into the bottle was our plan of attack!! Jack Foley shared his incredible knowledge and suggested that because fire needs oxygen it would force the egg into the bottle ... He was correct! Before we can check out how our groups went let's introduce the scientists of 5Red ...





 
Successful :)


 

Unsuccessful :( The placement of the egg did end up playing a role in sucking the egg in!!

  3. It was amazing to see what fire does to get oxygen! We couldn't believe the egg actually got sucked into the bottle.
