In this test I will be testing

Zn Mg Fe Ca

(All in powder form to give a larger surface area)

Zn - Mass No 65

Mg - Mass No 24

Fe - Mass No 56

Ca - Mass No 40

Using 1g of each would be unfair because they would be different amounts according to their mass numbers so I used a different method.

Zn - 6.5g

Mg - 2.4g...
