results day 3 :)

Heyy everyone! :)

So far it is the third day and the experiment is going well. Although there is not much evaporation occurring in the measuring cups, there is some and I will record my results here:

Water evaporation:
Measuring cup 1- plain water: current height in ml: 245ml
Current height in cm: 7.35cm
Current water evaporation loss in ml: 5ml
Current water evaporation loss in cm/ mm: 1.5mm

Measuring cup 2- chlorinated water: current height in ml:243 ml
Current height in cm: 7.3 cm
Current water evaporation loss in ml: 7ml
Current water evaporation loss in cm/mm: 2mm

Measuring cup 3- chlorinated water with liquid pool cover: current height in ml: 250 mm
Current height in cm: 7.5 cm
Current water evaporation loss in ml: 0 ml
Current water evaporation loss in cm/mm: 0

Measuring cup 4- chlorinated water with solid pool cover: current height in ml: 243 mm
Current height in cm: 7.3 cm
Current water evaporation loss in ml: 7 ml
Current water evaporation loss in cm/mm: 2mm

Ph, chlorine, alkalinity and stabiliser content:
Measuring cup 1- plain water: Ph level: 7.2 (this is in the ok range-this range lasts from 7.2 to 7.8)
Chlorine level: 0 (this is in the low range- this range lasts from 0 to 0.5)
Alkalinity: 80 ppm (this is in the ok range- this range lasts from 80 to 120)
Stabilizer: 0 ppm (this is low, there is only one figure)

Measuring cup 2- chlorinated water: Ph level: 6.8 (this is in the low range- this range lasts from 6.2 to 6.8)
Chlorine level: 1 (this is in the pool ok range- this range lasts from 1-2.5)
Alkalinity: 0 ppm (this is in the low range- this range lasts from 0-40)
Stabilizer: 0 ppm (this is low, there is only 1 figure)

Measuring cup 3- chlorinated water with liquid pool cover. Ph level: 6.2 (this is in the low range- this range lasts from 6.2 to 6.8)
Chlorine level: 1 (this is in the pool ok range- this range lasts from 1-2.5)
Alkalinity: 40 ppm (this is in the low range- this range lasts from 0 to 40)
Stabilizer: 0 ppm (this is low, there is only 1 figure)

Measuring cup 4- chlorinated water with solid pool cover
The measurements for this liquid are exactly the same as the ones listed for measuring cup 2, as they both contain the same chlorinated water.
Ph level: 6.8 (this is in the low range- this range lasts from 6.2 to 6.8)
Chlorine level: 1 (this is in the pool ok range- this range lasts from 1-2.5)
Alkalinity: 0 ppm (this is in the low range- this range lasts from 0-40)
Stabilizer: 0 ppm (this is low, there is only 1 figure)

Colour and appearance:
Measuring cup 1- plain water: the colour is clear and the appearance is quite bubbly. Before there were tiny bubbles everywhere in the water, top, middle and bottom. But now they are starting to gather more towards the bottom and there are less bubbles at the top.

Measuring cup 2- chlorinated water: the colour is clear, and the appearance is quite clean and clear as well. There are no bubbles like in glass 1and it is completely clear. So as you can see, this has stayed the same.

Measuring cup 3- chlorinated water with liquid pool cover: the colour is opaque and the appearance is murky. The liquid pool cover has risen to the top and has a length of approximately half a cm. It is translucent and murky white. Also, the liquid pool cover now kind of looks like bundles of clouds. A sudden movement of the measuring cup, for example when I lift it up to measure it, causes the liquid pool cover to spread out, but after some time it settles at the top again.

Measuring cup 4- chlorinated water with solid pool cover: the colour and appearance are exactly the same as measuring cup 2.
