=**Burning Liquids**=


 * Problem:** Which liquid burns the longest?

Lighter fluid is commonly used in the ends of cigarets, starting charcoal grills and fueling lighters.
 * Background / Reason:** Most petroleum based liquids ignite at 490° F. But the temperature may vary by how fast the fuel is delivered to burn. For example if you use lighter fluid to light a charcoal grill it might reach up to about 800° F. We are doing this because there might be a more effective alternative to lighter fluid.


 * Hypothesis:** Out of all of these liquids we predict that lighter fluid be the most effective.


 * Materials: (Already own)**
 * 1) Matches
 * 2) 3 non-flammable cups
 * 3) 1/2 cup measuring cup
 * 4) Gas
 * 5) Lighter Fluid
 * 6) Oil
 * 7) Timers

Procedure:

 * 1) Measure out 1/2 cup of each liquid into separate non-flammable containers.
 * 2) Strike match.
 * 3) Drop in liquid and start timer.
 * 4) Stop timer when flame goes out.
 * 5) Record data.
 * 6) Repeat for each fluid.
 * 7) Compare times.
 * 8) Find out longest time

Make sure you state the liquids and explain why you think the "lighter" one would be the most effective. (Emily Cassulo) Have you considered the safety of this experiment? Dropping fire into gas will create a dangerous situation. (Emily Cassulo) I think the procedures could be more thorough and you need backround information.
