What+happens+to+the+beans?

__Hypothesis:__
I predict that the rubbing alcohol mixed with water will make the bean plants grow less. Due to chemicals, affecting the plan growth.

__General Plan__
First I will plant two seeds in a flower pot with soil. Then I will water two pots with water and two with rubbing alcohol. I will take two observations a day. One in the morning and one at late afternoon/early night. I will repeat this process of watering and observing until the first week of March. I will be observing the growth of all four bean plants. I will keep track of how much liquid I give the plants also. I will record my observations in a notebook.

1. The beans don't grow. Solution: Plant more bean plants. - include in procedure.

 * 2.** Not enough sunlight for plants. **Solution: Use light bulb for light - include in procedure.**
 * 3. Try not to inhale rubbing alcohol to much because its dangerous......has negative side affects. - include in procedure.**

__Safety Or Environmental Concerns__
One environmental concern that I have is if people who are making crops to not water their plants with rubbing alcohol.

__ What is your experimental unit? __
**Answer:** Four bean plants, Four cups, Liquids.

__Number Of Trials:__
**Answer:** None I let plants grow

__Number Of Subjects In Each trial:__
**Answer:** Two, Rubbing Alcohol and water.

__Number of Observations:__
**Answer:** Two measurements a day. In the morning and at night.

__When data will be collected__
. **Answer:** Start experiment no later then February 4th, 2013

__Where will data be collected?:__
In a graph I will make.

__Resources and Budget Table__

 * Item || Number needed || Where I will get this || Cost ||
 * Bean Seeds || 1 pack || Walmart || $0.97 ||
 * Cups || one pack || Walmart || $3.99 ||
 * Vinegar || 1 bottle || Walmart || $1.99 ||
 * tap water ||  || home || $0.00 ||
 * Soil || 1 bag || Walmart || $6.50 ||

__Detailed Procedure__
1. Get bean seeds and plant then in cup. 2. Water one with vinegar, one with water, another with vinegar, water another with water. 3. Let beans grow. 3. Take observations every day in the morning and at late afternoon/night. Continue this process until the first week in March. 4. After plants are done growing, take observation of how much the plants have growing since the begging. 5. Make a graph of observations.

__Photo List__
I will take pictures every day of my experiment. Of the plant growth

__Results__
My results show that my rubbing alcohol plants were killed with the rubbing alcohol. Meaning that they did not grow at all. My plants that were given water grew. These results give me the information that giving plants rubbing alcohol will kill plants.

__Conclusion__
From my conclusion I concluded that rubbing alcohol kills plants. To prove this I observed that my alcohol plants have not grown, compared to my other plants that have been given water.

__Discussion__
My data showed that rubbing alcohol did in fact kill the two plants they were in. This shows to never give plants rubbing alcohol, or they will die. I was able to answer my experiment question. I did come upon some problems related to my plants. In the begging of my experiment my plants A way that in the future that this experiment could be improved is instead of giving plants an other type of liquid besides water, give the plants multiple types of liquids that have chemicals in it.

Benefit to Community and/or Science
A benefit to community and/ or science is letting people know to not water crops or plants with rubbing alcohol.

__Background Research__
The beans should grow in one to two weeks. From doing research I learned that just a small amount of rubbing alcohol inserted in a plant will eventually dry the plant. The alcohol in about a week will start to dry out the inside of the plant. Even after the plant dries out if you give the plant water it will still die. I recommend not giving your plants alcohol because if you plant crops with the bean seed and give them alcohol it will kill the crop.

__Abstract,__
My experiment was overall a success. My question was does the acidity of water affect bean growth. I had to restart my project because none of my plant were growing. So I restarted my project and it was a success. My hypothesis turned out to be correct. I thought that the rubbing alcohol would kill the plants, and the plants that had water would grow. It took about a week for the plants to start growing, but at least this experiment gave me a conclusion. The conclusion that it gave me was if your planning to have successful plant growth, DO NOT give your plants rubbing alcohol.
