At states and nats, are you supposed to ID the powder? Just asking, cuz I didn't have to @ Regs.

Nope, you're never asked to ID the powder.

Yeah!
it's a really fun event though (especially at some Invitationals we went to) and the labs were really exciting so it's not too bad of a change. And nope, no ID of the powder needed.

No matter what the experiment's result, there will always be someone eager to:(a) misinterpret it(b) fake it, or (c) believe it supports his own pet theory.

Does anybody know anything about it? such as the amount of chemistry, what we can expect to see, etc. It sounds awesome- combines two of my favorite things- cooking and science!

I'm just angry it's taking CJAP my fave event! I'm not planning on doing it! I hope you have a bunch of time tocook, as cooking is time consuming, as I learned in 6th grade FACS.

yeah, but it is fun and is something useful to do when I get tired of staring at fossilized seashells. I mean, besides clean my room *coughs.* And how much is actual cooking? I was under the impression that it was the science behind cooking. If not, (actually, even so), I will have to bust out my Alton Brown cookbooks and my brand-new copy of Cooking for Geeks.

When we did it as a Trial Event, there wasn't much cooking. Although it may (probably will) be different next year, ours was taking a test, using solutions like Benedict's, Biuret's and Sudan, and using a Calorimeter. It wasn't cooking but more of science behind cooking, and there was a lot of chemistry on the test (but it was organic chem. so it all depends)
