Dusting for fingerprints

• Something to dust your print off (a mug/window)

• Powder Brush
• Cocoa/Talcum Powder
• Sticky tape
• White card/White paper

• To be sure your fingerprint will be nice, rub your finger in your hair or on your nose so it can obtain the natural oils.
  
• Place your finger on the place you will be dusting (mug/window).
• Dip your brush into the powder you are using.
• Lightly sprinkle the powder over the place you left your fingerprint.
• Gently blow the loose powder away.
• You should be able to see your fingerprint.
• Being very careful, use the tape and gently place it on your newly discovered fingerprint, but be careful not to smudge it.
• Gently lift the tape up, you should be able to see your fingerprint on the tape.
• Place the tape with the fingerprint on a clean piece of white paper or white card.
• If everything went well, your should be looking at your fingerprint on the piece of paper.

Trace Evidence

You will need

• Sticky tape
• White card
• Large Piece of white paper

How to

• This DIY consists of two methods, but first you need to find a room with lots of trace evidence.
• Method 1:
• Start lifting the trace evidence using your tape. (on the back of chairs, on the carpet...)
• Once you've collected the trace on your tape, being careful, peel the tape back and stick it to your white card.
• Do this many times around the room your processing!
• Method 2:
  
• If you have things in your room you can shake (pillow, mats...) the trace evidence off, you should use this next method.
  
• Place the large piece of white paper on the floor.
• Shake your object over the large piece of white paper. Your trace evidence will fall onto the paper.
• Pick up the trace by using the tape like before.
• Once your finish collecting all the trace evidence, you can start analyzing it. It's usually done using very hi-teach instruments, but you probably don't have any at home. If you have a microscope, you can analyze your evidence with that. If you don't have anything, then just use your eyes.
• Did you figure out what you've collected?

Toxicology(Acid or alkaline?)

How to:

• Fill a saucepan with 1.5 liters of water
• Add the red cabbage leaves(shredded) in the water
• Boil the water for about 5 minutes
• Cool the water for half and hour
• Strain the liquid in the jug
• Name the three small glasses from one to three
• Divide the liquid equally into the three glasses
• Add the lemon juice to glass #1
• Add the vinegar to glass #2
• Add the baking soda in glass #3

• Look at the colour of the liquid. If the liquid has turned red, the substance is acidic. If the liquid has turned purple the substance is alkaline. If it stays the same color, the substance is neutral
