Which Crisps Have The Most Energy?

Michael is on a diet and wants to avoid putting on weight. He is hungry however and wants a snack. The snack machine in school has six kinds of crisp in it. One is a normal packet of crisps, and the other is a low fat packet of crisps. Michael thinks that the low fat crisps have less energy in them and so will be less fattening.

        At the end of this investigation I will have hoped to answer Michael’s question, on which crisp has the most energy?

Prediction

I predict that the crisps with the most fat will burn with the highest temperature, because I no that there is a lot of energy in fat and all it needs is to be realest, so when I burn the crisps the fattest ones will give off the most heat, and the low fat crisps will not have as much energy to burn so not burring at such temperature as the fat crisps.

I also think that the fat that runs out of the crisp while it burin will burn and give off a lot of heat there for raisin the temperature. I will burn each crisp until it burns itself out and I will perform each experiment three times and take an average to make the experiment fair.

Safety

To make sure this experiment is safe I will wear safety goggles to protect my eyes, and try to be very careful when burning the crisps.

Fair Test

To ensure this experiment is a fair I will keep the amount of water the same throughout the experiment also hold the crisp in the same position each time, I will change the water beaker every time I burn a crisp there by keeping the starting temperature of the water the same for every crisp I burn, I will burn each crisp until it burns itself out and ...
