Our class was asked to make a project that shows our knowledge on water and chemistry. My group decided to make a water filtration prototype.

Solution
-the process by which a gas, liquid, or solid is dispersed homogeneously in a gas, liquid, or solid without chemical change
-such a substance, as dissolved sugar or salt solution
-a homogeneous molecular mixture of two or more substances
Solute
-the substance dissolved in a given solution
Solvant
-the dispersing medium of a solution
Polarity
-forcing solvent molecules to flow through a semipermeable membrane from a concentrated solution into a dilute solution by the application of greater hydrostatic pressure on concentrated side than the osmotic pressure opposing it
Activate Charcoal
-a form of carbon processed to have small, low-volume pores that increase the surface area available for absorption or chemical reactions
pH Levels
- measure of acidity or alkalinity of water soluble substances
- pH value is from 1 to 14, 7 is neutral, 1 - 6 is acidic, and 8-14 is basic
-stands for potential of hydrogen

This project I enjoyed the most because my group and I shared the work. Two pits of this project were how open ended it was, it made it hard to choose, and our filtration breaking, it would leak because it was hard to keep it completely sealed. Two peaks was the people in the group and the filter working very well. Overall it was a good project and a lot of team work which was nice.
