Aim:
The aim of this experiment is to see how temperature affects water
Hypothesis:
I predict that as the temperature of the water increases, the water will start to evaporate, and as the temperature decreases the water will start to solidify.
Apparatus:
- Beaker
- Water
- Baby Food Cooker
- Freezer
- Stopwatch
- Thermometer
Method:
1. Put the water in a beaker and place the beaker in the freezer for 5 minutes
2. Measure the temperature & what happened
3. Put the water in a beaker and place it at room temperature for 5 minutes
4. Record what happens
5. Put the water in a baby food cooker and bring the temperature of 100 degrees for 5 min
6. Record what happens
Results:
-4 degrees 25 degrees 100 degrees
solidify stays the same evaporating
Conclusion:
I can therefore conclude that my hypothesis was correct. I had predicted that when the temperature would be colder the water would solidify and as the temperature increased, the water would start to evaporate.
Evaluation:
To improve this experiment and to make it more accurate I could do more than just three tests in the future. I also could find a way of collecting how much solidified or how much evaporated.
