In my opinion, being able to be confident when public speaking is an important life skill because it can help with many different things like, talking to your class, being able to do a certain speech in a crowd. And it also make you feel good about yourself and boosts your self esteem to keep going. Relating to this statement, I know as a student is really hard to have confidence in public speaking but just a little courage can do lots of things through out your life.

Distillation
On Monday we will be doing a practical called Distillation.Distillation is the scientific experiment used to show the processes of evaporation and condensation. Evaporation is making liquid into gas by heating it up. And Condensation is turning gas into a liquid. The aim is about evaporating coke and seeing how much sugar is in each of the coke products. and my hypothesis is how it will be evaporated and what will happen to the coke.During our practical, we noticed that our coke zero started boiling and entering the tube attached to the conical flask.When the liquid started to travel to the tube the boiling tube which was covered with ice to condense the the coke. at the end of the process all that was left was the bits of ingredients that was inside the coke.
