Some people might think online relationships are better because they might not won't to see people face to face. On the other hand People might like to talk face to face and there could be catfish.  With online relationships you might have a long distance relationship so you need the internet to communicate. In conclusion I think online relationships are just as important as real life relationships.

Filtration

Today in hurumanu we a separating two chemicals. 

Aim: To separate the two chemicals from the mixture we made.

Hypothesis: I think this will work out well and separate.

Equipment: Copper sulphate, conical flask, stirring rod, 200 mL beaker, funner, filter paper

Method: 

1. Pour approximately 50mL of copper sulfate solution into a beaker.

2. Add the same volume of sodium carbonate solution. A reaction will happen, you should see a cloudy blue precipitate form. Called copper carbonate. 

3. Watch demo then fold filter paper to fit inside the funnel

4. Place the funnel with the filter paper inside of it, into the mouth of a conical flask. 

5. Stir the mixture in the beaker, then carefully pour it into the funnel. 

6. Observe what happened.

Observation and discussion: When we mixed the two chemicals together the copper sulphate went a bit

darker. When we put the mixture into the filter the carbonate solution came out.

When they got back to Samoa they got the song muddled and and said men are to be tattooed and are not to be tattooed. For many years they only tattooed men but eventually they were able to.
