The lab

As usual in our ever so exciting we conducted a thrilling lab. We were conducting this lab to see if stoichiometry, namely the application of stoichiometry to this particular formula
Sr(NO3)2 + CuSO4 -> SrSO4 + Cu(NO3)2 is right. After all, even though we know Mr. Doktor gave us the right equation we still end up testing it out, in the off chance that he's wrong (which we know he isn't).
Anyways, we ended up conducting the lab much like a previous one, we measured out the right amount of Strontium Nitrate and Copper Sulphate. Then we mixed each individually in water, later combining the two chemicals to complete the reaction. After that we poured the mixture into filter paper in a funnel and waited. Once we finished waiting we put the filter paper in the drying oven and cleaned up, by that time class was over. So stay tuned for part two of our lab.
