Freezing Milk with different fat percentages
I have completed my 4th grade project - I froze 4 different kinds of milk: Fat free, 2%, whole and butter milk. I used 100 ml of each and did the experiment 3 times. My hypothesis was that the milk with the most fat would take the longest to freeze. Now I have to list my data and I am not sure how to show the data. I already completed my graph but the data part is confusing. Can you show me an example that would go with my experiment?

Re: Freezing Milk with different fat percentages
Hi,
That's an interesting idea! It could be very important for farmers to know how certain types of milk behave at low temperatures in storage, so your experiment is a good one.The best way to report this data is in an easy-to-read table, with one column for each of your four types of milk, and one row for each of the three experiments, plus another row for an average of all three times. Does that make sense? Sorry there is no example, I tried to post one but it didn't work.
If you can make a table like that, judges and viewers can easily find the data for every type of milk for all 3 times that you performed the experiment.
I hope this helps you! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

If you are still stuck trying to figure out how to present your data, try this link, here on this web site: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... data.shtml.
Along with the good ideas provided by AeroSpace Guy, this should help.
Good luck.
