Getting close to finishing?- Blog post # 9

            Today in class today we had to repeat the process of mixing the sodium hydroxide with the oil.
Sadly there was not any sodium hydroxide for my class to use so all we could do today was to give everyone an equal amount of oil and washing the beakers.
           We are getting close to moving the bus. The only thing we need is more purified oil. The way to test if we're getting close is to compare the bio-diesel with actual diesel.

  1. It seems like we are very close! Are you sure there isn't a different way to test it if we are close?
