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. By the end, you should know: How do the molecules behave in a solid? Rachel 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 How do the molecules behave in a gas? Jed Total Disorder; particles have complete freedom; Molecules far apart What happens to the molecules as they change from a solid to a liquid? Celia
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? Celia
Emily Brenker
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 As you remove energy from the gas it wont be as easily compressible and there will be less intermolecular space. What happens to the molecules as they change from a liquid to a solid? nicolaus 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? nicolaus temperature
Variables:
The independent variable is: (the one variable that you will change)
Changing the energy that is going into the hot plate that is heating ice particle movement as matter changes state
The dependent variable is: (The variable that you are investigating)
Control Variables
The factors that you keep the same, so that the experiment is a fair test. Try and list at least 5.

2. The way we measure because if we use something By just using a thermometer the temperature else we are not going to have (thermometer) the accurate answer
because if we use a different By only using the same solid. solid then the temperature that it becomes a liquid and gas is all different
Hypothesis:
What will happen to the dependent variable as the independent variable is changed?
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.
Why?
Because as the ice turns into liquid, the molecular structure will become less attached and the molecules will start to move freely.

Conclusion:
From the graph, the results show (What happens to the dependent variable as the independent variable changes?) . . .
Emily Brenker
At rst it took a while for the ice to melt. Something I found weird was how it was getting hotter then the temperature dropped but went back up. When the ice was completely melted the temperature went up very fast.
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.
Because ice is a solid so it takes longer to brake the molecules in the ice cubes, but once all the ice is melted into water the molecules can move more which makes it easier to get hotter.

Emily Brenker
Reliability of data.
by every 1 degree a) Did the measuring instruments collect data that Beaker: The beaker wasnt that accurate because it was only measured every 100. For example if the water was a little under can be trusted?
Yes/ No
400 then you would have to hypothesize what the number is Time: I trusted the time because Rachel had a watch and you could see by hour, minute and second.
c) Did the measuring instrument collect precise data? (i.e. Did the multiple trials give similar data?) Yes/ No
Some of it did. Like for example the thermometer gave precise information did, but the beaker didnt. I explained why it didt work in the box above.
Size of sample. d) was the range large enough? No, because it never went up 100C or started boiling.
Yes/ No
Emily Brenker
You are almost done! Now go back to the beginning and give your investigation a title using the dependent and independent variable.
