In this experiment, we measured the amount of sugar that was in solutions. In doing this we were able to determine the density of our unknown solutions. Our goal was to figure out which solutions have the highest and the lowest concentrations.

Through conducting this experiment we figured out that Diet Coke had the lowest concentration. It had 0 grams of sugar per serving. This resulted in a 0 grams per mL concentration. The next unknown solution was Coke. It contains 27 grams of sugar per serving. The label concentration is 0.1125 grams per mL. Through our experiment we measured a 0.09 grams per mL concentration. The final unknown solution was grape juice. It contains 49 grams of sugar per serving. The label concentration is 0.165 grams per mL. Through our experiment we measured a 0.18 grams per mL concentration.

Our experiment came out to be fairly accurate. All of our measurements came within 0.02 grams per mL from the label. This could have come from any number of human errors. I believe that if we would redo the experiment a few times we could get our numbers even with the label. One of the errors could have come from reading the ruler incorrectly or misreading the volume of water in the beaker.

I would say that this technique works best for the higher concentrations of sugar. The number for gape juice were the closest to the actual number and the line on the graph from table 2.
