 * THE STUDY OF DISSOLVING VARIOUS AROMA BEADS **

The purpose of this study was to determine of aroma beads could actually cover up odors like they are supposed to. The strength of the beads scent and also the age will determine if the bead can cover up an odor so that people cannot smell the other scent. Different types of scent were put in a cup with aroma beads and people guessed what scent other than the beads were in the cup. It was determined that the some of the stronger scents of beads could mask a smell well and others could not. Overall, the percent of people that guessed the correct answer, were just guessing.
 * ABSTRACT **

In the future, it would be interesting to determine if different kinds of liquids or temperatures could affect how long it takes the aroma beads to dissolve. In the experiments that were conducted, there was one thing that could be changed. The amount of water used could be changed so that the difference was more significant.
