Tangerine Lab Report Names: Cora Turner, Melissa Maxwell, Betsy Webb, Grace Ashbery Problem-The Tangerine Group is wondering which brand of toilet paper is the most durabiale, the softest, the most absorbent, and the cheapest? Observation/Research- Toilet paper is always white, the softness and texture can vary from brand to brand, and it is used for muliple purposes and other things. Hypothesis- The Tangerine Group thinks that the name brand toilet paper is more durable, softer, and more absorbent than the store brand. Even though the name brand toilet paper is more expensive than the store brand, we are guessing it is more efficient toilet paper. Test Hypothesis-  1.We are using Charmin Ultra Toilet Paper, Up and Up Toilet Paper, two spray bottles with colored water, toilet paper holders, arpons, and latex gloves to protect ourselves from the colored water. 2.In this testing Up and Up toilet paper is the control in this expirement and Charmin Ultra toilet paper is the inpendantiable variable in this expirement. Procedures:  1. First, we are going to spray colored water on the toilet paper while wearing gloves and aprons, and then we are going to wipe the toilet paper on the table to see which brand is more duriable. 2. Second, we will test the softness of the toilet paper by each member rubbing it against their hands and voting which one is softer. 3. Then, we are going spray water four times from far away on the toilet paper rolls and continue pulling the sheets of toilet paper. When the water stops bleeding through and is absorded, we will see which brand absorded the water using the least amount of sheets. 4.We will then compare which toilet brand is more affordable. 5. Then the Tangerine Group cleaned up all the supplies that were used in the experiment. Collect and Study Data- We recorded our information that we found in our expirement, and we put it into bar graphs to display it. We recorded information about absorbency, durability, softeness, and also the price of each indivdual roll of toilet paper. We made sure our experiment results were correct by doing each test multiple times. Conclusion: In our experiment we were testing the durability, absorbancy, softess, and price. First, we sprayed colored water, from far away, onto the toilet paper while wearing gloves and aprons, and wiped the toilet paper on the table to see which brand was more duriable. Then, we tested the softness by each member rubbing it against their faces and then we voted which one was the softest. Then, we sprayed water four times, far away from, the toilet paper rolls and continued pulling the sheets of toilet paper. When the water stopped bleeding through and was absorded all the way, we saw which brand absorded the water using the least amount of sheets. We then compared which toilet brand was more affordable. The Tangerine Group's hypothisis that the name brand toilet paper is more efficent than the store brand. Our hypothsis was correct.
