Jean Lab Conclusion

          On the Jean Lab, we had to solve a question about which bleach is the best for fading out denim from Jeans. Our hypothesis what if heavy bleach turns a dark color into a light color on denim jeans, then it will make jeans lighter. The results we got was that the Jeans faded it out best on the 100% bleach. We got this result by putting some denim jeans in each of the of the concentrated bleach. We had one that had 12.5%, 25%, 50%, and 100% bleach. The 12.5% bleach didn’t fade the color of the jeans very much as it we rated it 2.5/10. The 25% bleach affected the color of the jeans better than the 12.5% bleach as we rated it 4.5/10. The 50% bleach was affected the color of the jeans as we rated it 7/10. The 100% bleach affected the jeans the most as we rated it 8.5/10. This result is likely caused by the amount of bleach used per concentration and shows a change of each concentration.
          While our hypothesis was supported by our data, there could have been errors due to how we did this experiment. We did not add three pieces of denim fabric at a time which affect our results a lot as we didn’t have a third trial. Our averages may have changed from this mistake. Also, another mistake we made was our timing. We were a little bit off on the timing as we took a little too long to get the denim jeans out of the petri dishes. The few seconds may affect the accurate results of the denim jeans. I would recommend people to be careful and read the directions before doing what's needed.
           This experiment was a good experiment for showing which bleach is most effective for fading out denim jeans. We got this result by having different concentration amounts of bleach in each petri dish and found that the 100% bleach was the most effective for fading out denim jeans. This lab was related to the scientific method where we used the steps from the scientific method to get an answer from our question. This experiment can be applied to other situations like fashion line makers who want to try and fade out their clothing products to make clothing look more fashionable.
