You will also need three clear glass containers with lids. Put at least 6 ounces (3/4 cup) of each type of water in the clear glass container. Shake each container. Take a picture of each sample and submit it as well.

Write a brief paragraph describing the differences in the water, and an explanation for the qualities that you identify.

Go to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) website and view the Consumer Confidence Report, which will give you the latest information about the quality of the water in Seattle. Review the report, and describe the quality of water there. Do the results match your observations? Why or why not?
