What Melts Marshmallows Fastest?

●An Experiment By Nicolas Stamper!

What I Think Will Melt Marshmallows Fastest

What: I think that the Coke Zero will melt faster

Why: Because Coke Zero has carbonation

What I Used!

● Water

● Milk

● Coke Zero

● Apple Cider Vineger

● Automatic Dishwasher Gel

● Marshmallows

The Test!

● I got the supplies● I poured each liquid into a bowl● I put the marshmallows in each one● And I observed them for a week

Day 1

● I put the marshmallows in at 6:15 pm on Febraury 27th 2015

Day 2

● Some marshmallows starting to break into pieces in the apple cider vineger

Day 3

● No change in day 3● Marshmallows are the same● No marshmallow has broken or done

anything.

Day 4

● The water looks like its breaking

● The apple cider vinager looks like it is disinagrating more than water

● The coke zero looks like a roasted marshmallow but it is not melting

● The milk looks the same, no change

● The Dish soap looks shiny but is not melting.

Day 5

● Marshmallow in the water is soft and melting a little bit

● The marshmallow In the apple cider vinager is melting a lot

● The coke zero marshmallow is turning brown but not melting at all

● The marshmallow in the milk is not changing at all (milk is starting to spoil)

● The dish soap marshmallow is getting sticky and soft but not melting

Day 6

● The only one that has changed is the apple cider vinager. It is breaking apart more and getting puffier.

Day 7

● The last day of the expirement

● I took the marshmallows out of their liquids

● All of them were easy to get out except for the apple cider vinegar

● Apple cider vinegar marshmallow is falling apart it is mushy and soft

The Results!

● Milk● It was soft

● The milk spoiled

● It did not melt at all

● Dishwashing Soap

● It was sticky, shiny, and soft

● It melted the marshmallow a little

● Coke Zero● The coke turned the

marshmallow brown

● It did not melt

The Results!

● Water● It melted a little bit

● It did not lose its color

● It absorbed some water and got soft

● Apple Cider Vinegar● The marshmallow almost

completely melted

● It turned light brown

Conclusion!THE APPLE CIDER VINEGAR WON!

Before the experiment I thought the Coke Zero was going to melt the fastest because it has carbonation. I

thought the carbonation would break it apart the fastest.

But the apple cider vinegar melted the fastest. I think this is because the apple cider vinegar is a acid.

Acids melt or make things soft.
