                                           CRYSTAL LAB

       In September we made a crystal lab about minerals.Using sugar water and fire with a spoon we created crystal.we had to put water on a glass plate and pace on plate for the water to boiled.And while the water was boiling we uses the spoon to put sugar int the water spoon by spoon. we couldn't just pore everything because it wouldn't turn out right the way it suppose,we had to put it in spoon by spoon then mix it until the sugar was gone.We had to do that until the water started getting thick and when the sugar didn't dissolved.Then we put the lab b the window and wait for the change to happen the it turn out to look like this.

Then we had to make observation on how the minerals looked,such as
Luster:uses Metallic and Nonmetallic Minerals.
Metallic:mean if the minerals is made up of metal.
Nonmetallic:mean if the minerals does not made of matal.
Color:how does the mineral look like if it as color or is it colorless.
