6. DONE!

Findings: I found that out the way you find what powder it was when put vinegar into the powder it fizzed when that fizzed up we tell it was baking soda

	Sugar	Salt	Baking Soda	Cornflour
Appearance	grains	grains	bits	bits
Texture	block	blocks	soft	soft
Smell	sweet	gross	disgusting	noting
Iodine	turned brown and speared	turned brown and spread	went solid	turned purple
Water	wet	wet	soggy	gross
Vinegar	wet	wet	fizzed	dissolved

dissolved
Write a paragraph about your findings. when you put water in the baking soda got soggy but vinegar did different reaction vinegar fizzed up but when you sugar it would to same thing.But it was different  for cornflour for water it went gross then for vinegar it dissolved.
