Observations of experiment 1(effect of coke on meat)

Observations
Raw chicken and pork in coke
  • coke separated to form a translucent yellowish-brown coloured liquid with black coloured sediments gathered at the bottom. The sediments varied in size and shape. The piece of meat turned a whitish colour and had a texture similar to raw fat, being soft. 
  • The piece of meat has increased in size greatly
Raw chicken in water
  • no change in the liquid however there is a small amount of sediments at the bottom of the container probably originating from the piece of meat.
  • The meat also appeared to have increased in size slightly
Raw pork in water
  • yellowish tinge in the liquid. ( possibly due to the blood diffusing out of the meat into the water.)
  • Piece of meat appeared to have increased in size
Cooked Chicken/pork in coke
  • meat turned black in colour, however coke does not appear to have changed.
Cooked chicken/pork in water
