States Of Matter Lab Introduction:


In this lab we have to nd as was heat up ice when the water and nd out if the molecules are staying the same, moving further away or staying the same. in this lab, we had to do research, variables, form a hypnosis, get our materials and method, do the lab and form a conclusion and then nd out as the water change from solid to liquid to gas will they decrease, increase, or stay the same.

Research questions:
The purpose of this experiment is to answer to following question:

As water changes from one state to another, will particle movement increase, decrease or stay the same? (solid to liquid to gas to liquid, etc.)
You will need to write some specic research questions here. You can write these ahead of time, or as you do your research. How do the molecules behave in a solid? The molecules in a solid are packed very tight together, and dont move as much because the gaps in between the molecules are very small so they move among the space that they have. How do the molecules behave in a liquid? -- Jed Disorder; particles free to move around; Molecules not closely held --- Mr. McKinneys PP How do the molecules behave in a gas? -- Jed Total Disorder; particles have complete freedom; Molecules far apart --- Mr. McKinneys PP What happens to the molecules as they change from a solid to a liquid?
At rst, the added thermal energy makes the water molecules vibrate faster, raising their temperature. At its melting point, the particles of a solid substance are vibrating so fast that they break free from their xed positions.

What happens to the molecules as they change from a liquid to a gas? At its freezing temperature, the particles of a liquid are moving so slowly that they begin to form regular patterns What happens to the molecules as they change from a gas to a liquid? Emily A: As you remove energy from the gas it wont be as easily compressible and there will be less intermolecular space. when the get temperature colder and closer molecules together and the molecules still move around, but are closer than gas molecules What causes matter to change from one state to another state? temperature Padilla, Michael J., Martha Cyr, and Ioannis Miaoulis.

and Gases." Prentice Hall Science Explorer. Needham, MA: Prentice Hall, 2000. 42-47. Print.

Variables:
The independent variable is: (the one variable that you will change)

the heat of the water

The dependent variable is: (The variable that you are investigating)

the particle movement

Control Variables
The factors that you keep the same, so that the experiment is a fair test. Try and list at least 5.

Factors to be controlled:

Reason it needs to be controlled:

How it will be controlled:

Nicolaus Strozeski

Thursday, 16 May 2013 8:43:38 AM Hong Kong SAR China Time

1 the temperature that the heat is

because it could heat so fast we cant keep the reading

keep the oven temperature to a good degree

2 the way we measure the temperature

because we need a tool to measure the temperature

use a thermometer to measure the temperature

3 the liquid we use

because if we use some other make sure we use water liquid,it may not melt

Hypothesis:
What will happen to the dependent variable as the independent variable is changed? Why?

Nicolaus Strozeski

Thursday, 16 May 2013 8:43:38 AM Hong Kong SAR China Time

What would that relationship look like? Try to graph or illustrate this: What will happen to the dependent variable as the independent variable is changed? As the ice particles begin to melt, they will start to move away from each other and as the ice heats up and the particles move away Why? Because as the ice turns into liquid, the molecular structure will become less attached and the molecules will start to move freely.As you add energy the molecules will start
moving more because in one of the photos that Mr McKinney showed, it said that the more you add energy the more molecules will start to separate and move. The movement will increase by a lot.

What would that relationship look like? Try to graph or illustrate this

Conclusion:

From the graph, the results show (What happens to the dependent variable as the independent variable changes?) . . .

The ice got hotter at a slow and steady pace the ice is turning in to a liquid, water even took a long time and then after it all turned in to water, the it quickly turned in to gas and heat up.

This happens because (Consider the concepts you used in your hypothesis). This is a good place to include some diagrams if they will help explain your ideas.

The particles movement, because when it all ice the particles are all stuck together and then when it stars to heat up the particles start to move freely and are not clumped together and when the was water in gas.

Reliability of data.

Explanation (why / why not?)

1st way would be the beaker was very reliable because it a) Did the measuring would tell how much the water is instruments collect data that the thermometer is reliable if you put in in the right way can be trusted? and the time is reliable Yes/ No

b) Was the experiment repeated enough times?


Write more

denitely not

Yes/ No

c) Did the measuring instrument collect precise data? (i.e. Did the multiple trials give similar data?) Yes/ No

the information was precise for the all of the equipment

Size of sample. d) was the range large enough?


100 what?????????

Why/ Why not?

Yes/ No

no, because we didnt go to 100

Were there any surprising results? What were they?


the main thing that was surprising was how long it took for the ice to melet
