This week in science we used bunsen burners. The experiment we performed was to fill a test tube with sugar and place it over the bunsen burner. When we turned the bunsen burner on, eventually the sugar began melting. At first the sugar turned yellow and then it started getting to be brown. The sugar began turning into a liquid.The liquid's bubbles rose to the top of the test tube and smoke began coming off of it. The smoke caused condensation and rose into the air where we couldn't see it. Eventually the sugar turned black and hard. We broke open the test tube to observe the sugar closely. We learned that the sugar was broken down into it's elements.
