! ! ! I claim that when we put the vinegar with the steel wool the temperature rose. ! !

Our evidence is that it rose based on the fact that when we put in an additional ve cc it rose one degree each time. Also, in our second and third test it rose only one degree Celsius. When we put in additional ve cc it only rose one degree. When we put in 15 cc, it also rose one degree. Checking with the experts we have found the we found that the vinegar removed the steel wool coating. This allows the iron in the steel wool to rust, which is called oxidation. It's a chemical reaction because there's a color change, and there's a new substance. !
