Salt Concentration Lab


This week in our APES class we are conducting a lab in which we test what salt concentrations plants can properly germinate in.

 
                The salt concentration is determined by the numbers located on top of the labels. The number 3 located on the label above means that there was three grams of salt dissolved within a 100 mL beaker. Although you are unable to see the seeds germinating in the salt concentrations above other salt concentrations like the control or .5 have already began to germinate. While our lab continues we will be writing down how many seeds germinated, how many haven’t and the percentage of germination.
