Borax is a colorless form of salt that is able to dissolve in water. Borax contains sodium, hydrogen, boron, and oxygen. We used hot water because the temperature allows the borax to dissolve more borax. Supersaturated is when more than the maximum amount of the solute is added to the solvent. The higher the temperature of the water, the more likely it is to be able to support supersaturated solutes. When the water cools, it is unable to dissolve the supersaturated borax. My 3D sculpture is dynamic because the shape of my crystal resembles the sun from a show I used to watch as a child.
