Step 1 is question. First you ask a question that you want to know the answer to and that can be answered by experimentation. Step 2: hypothesize. Taking what you know make an educated guess or prediction about what you think the answer to the question might be. Step 3: Experiment. In this step you conduct an  experiment or series of experiments to test your hypothesis. Step 4: Collect Data. During this step of the scientific method, you collect the data from the experiment. You might be charting how tall or big something is, or how fast something goes, or other results of the experiments. Step 5: Conclude. In this step, the data is analyzed and it is decided whether or not the hypothesis is correct. Step 6: Communicate. In this step, the findings are revealed and shared with others. This may be through a report or presentation.

propane is burned to provide the heat in many cooking grills. the chemical reaction for this process is shown in the equation below.

c3h8 + 5o2 ? 3 co2 + 4h2o + energy

what are the products in this chemical reaction?

3co2 + 4h2o + energy
