Heyy everyone!!!!!! (:

Well, I am currently very excited as I have started my SRP experiment as per plan on the date that I intended on doing so- 17 May! In this blog I will post a lot of pictures just to show you what the equipment set up should look like!

Ok well in my previous blogs I have posted tonnes of pictures showing what the equipment looks, like, so now I will just show you what the labels for each of the measuring cups look like! I would have posted the pictures of labels here on this blog, but ive already got too many pictures up and it wont let me post them!! so ill just have to post them on the next one.

ANYWAY, the pictures have all been posted in a different order to what i wanted them to. so sorry about that! But here are some pictures of the sunroom where the measuring cups are:

NOTE: I have placed all the measuring cups in the sunroom as planned, and they are all an equal through quite small distance away from each other. This is to ensure that they all have access to an equal amount of sunlight and heat- elements which are essential in the evaporation process. Today was quite a sunny, sunshiney day which was good for my experiment. Also, to ensure that my pet rabbit doesn’t run around into my little experiment area and that people wouldn’t accidentally step on the measuring cups, my dad suggested that I put a little blocker thing separating my experiment from everything else. So, I took his advice and found a small table and placed it horizontally creating a little wall. This way the experiment can not be ruined :) So I will include pictures of this, and the sunroom, and the light coming through so you can see what it all looks like clearly. (above)

Now here are pictures of the equipment set up:

OMG!!!! the picture of measuring cup 4 wouldnt post here, but its at the top of the blog :)

As I said in my previous blog, all the different liquids in the measuring glasses were filled to a level of 250 ml/ 1 cup. The reason that I filled them to this high level and not a lower level as I had planned (I had planned to fill them to 2/3) is because this way they have more direct heat.

Oh, and here is a picture of my actual pool cover that I got from my pool. It is just a normal square sample and I cut it into a circle with a diameter of 7cm. I first just traced the outline with a black Sharpie, and then cut it with regular scissors. Here are the pictures:
