For chemistry project, I am currently washing the (hopefully) calcium Carbonate. due to calcium salts not liking to filter, I just mix with water, let it settle, and decant the liquid through a filter to catch a little if any. I keep the liquid because I can get sodium sulfate (if the reaction worked) from it.
After it was sitting over night, the pH was 12 (very alkaline). After washing 3 times, its down to 8. I will keep washing it until it gets to neutral (7). Then I will wash it a final time to make sure its clean, and then dry it out. Il then weigh the product, and see what the yield is. I will then dissolve the calcium Carbonate into vinegar to make Calcium Acetate. If it doesnāt all dissolve thatās fine. If it does dissolve then that means I successfully have made calcium Carbonate, as neither of the sulfates react with vinegar (due to vinegar being weaker than the sulfate group), and the sodium carbonate had been all washed out. I hope it works. it looks the same but thatās to be expected since both calcium-based molecules are insoluble in water.
At the start of the year, I set a goal of earning and saving 1000 dollars. I think by the end of the year, I might just reach that. I donāt know how much money I have saved up, but its atleast a few hundred from working for my brother, mowing lawn, etc. I think I will reach that goal. Im currently saving all the money I make over the summer to see how much I make. Only on August 17th will I check how much money I earned.

I might be able to start mowing another neighbors lawn for money, and I might be able to make another little bit from them with my mom pulling vines out of their bushes. This is good.

Behold; The end is not soon. The end is NOW
We are in the End. And the End will bring forth the Beginning of the New Heaven and Earth
For just as God, through Moses, led the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt, and into the promised land, so did Jesus, the Lord our God, lead us, through his death, out of slavery to sin, and delivered us into Heaven. But heed! For just as the Israelites not make it to the promised land because of there sin, and stubbornness, So shall the judgement of the Lord Jesus be, He who is of cold faith, shall not be delivered. Truly, I do say, He who says āLord! Lord!ā, but does not uphold is faith by following the Word of God, shall be said unto him, āDepart from me, I do not know you.ā

Canāt use treadmill. I want to run, but my shoes are really not good. They give blisters on my feet and theyre really wearing out. What other form of cardio can i do for 40 minutes for this?
Would riding my bike outside a bunch work?
Jump rope although 40 minutes would be far too much.
Shadow box. 3 minutes rounds with 60 seconds rest.
I rode bike for 40 minutes. Pretty easy, running is better since it would have been more challenging.
