Which cereal has more iron?

Post by CoastalSage »

Hi,
I have a student who is conducting the science fair experiment: Which cereal contains more iron. The process requires him to soak the cereal for 5 min. in hot water and then to run a bar magnet through the cereal. We are not having any success. Can you please help me to trouble shoot this problem?

Is this the project the student is doing: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... ast-cereal

The experimental procedure for preparing the cereals for testing involves more than just soaking the cereal in water, so I want to make sure that your student is using the current project directions from the Science Buddies site.
