    The hypothesis was that ice will melt faster on metal materials, and slower on other surfaces like wood cutting boards or plastic. My group’s data supported this hypothesis, because the ice cubes put on the metal surface melted much faster than on wood or plastic. The only variable that changed during the experiment was the material on which the ice melted. Other potential variables that my group attempted to avoid changing were the size of the ice cube, keeping the ice cubes identical, how the ice

    affect the freezing point of water? The water molecules leaving the solid phase will continually decrease as the temperature lowers until it will eventually match the rate at which water molecules can find the solid in the presence of salt. The higher the concentration of salt, the greater the freezing point depression. If I add salt to one of the bottles of water, but not to the other, then the bottle of water that had the salt will take longer to reach its freezing point. Independent Variable—

    the ice cream? Purpose: to find out wither the amount of salt added to the ice affects the formation of the ice cream. Hypothesis: if adding more salt to the ice, it will then cause the ice to melt much slower therefore increasing the freezing point and height of ice cream Materials: - 1 gallon plastic bag - 2 plastic bag (1 pint size) - 120mL of milk - 1 tbsp. of sugar - ¼ of vanilla extract - Salt - Half bag of ice Procedure: 1) A gallon bag was filled half way with crushed ice 2) 6 tablespoons

    temperature of the ice cream. Background Information The freezing point of something is defined as the temperature at which solid and liquid phases coexist in equilibrium. The normal freezing point of water or milk is at or below zero degrees Celsius. When a solute and solvent are combined a solution is formed. Decreasing the freezing point of a liquid by combining a solute and solvent is called freezing point depression. Freezing point depression is a colligative property which means it depends on

    liquid state much more than may be expected. ( wtamu.edu Dr. Christopher S.Baird 2017) 1.Salt The high concentration of salt solution in the ocean cause its freezing point from 0℃ decrease to -2℃. As a result, the ambient temperature must reach a lower point in order to freeze the ocean than to freeze freshwater lakes. This freezing point depression effect is the same reason and principle we

    determined by using methods such as melting points and boiling points. By finding a melting point, it can determine the type of compound being used and purity of that compound. Compounds that have a higher purity also have a higher melting point and a smaller rage at which it melts. During this experiment, a DigiMelt was used to heat the substances; urea, trans-cinnamic acid, a 50/50 mixture of urea and trans-cinnamic acid and an unknown crystal, to determine the melting range of each sample. While using

    SuperCooling Liquids When we can cool a liquid below its freezing point without it forming as a solid; this phenomenon, that still puzzles scientists today, is called supercooling. Supercooling keeps a liquid in the same state even when it is below its freezing point and when it should turn to a solid. Molecules are naturally sticky except while moving quickly when they bounce off each other. However, as the temperature drops, the molecules begin to stick together to form solids if it

    Why Is Ice Slippery

    • 325 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Physicists used to believe that ice became slippery when it was exposed to applied pressure. They believed that when a person went ice skating, the pressure from the blade caused the topmost layer of ice to melt. The thin layer of water allowed the ice skate to glide easily over the surface. The other theory is that ice is just slippery, because the outermost layer never turns to a solid. According to this theory, the water molecules at the surface of the ice move more, because they're at the edge

    The results proved the hypothesis incorrect that water and glycerin solution is the most suitable liquid due to its thick viscosity. However, the results are completely different. From these table, it is found that water and cornstarch solution is most suitable liquid to use in the snow globes due to its thick viscosity and also it took the longest time. The marble fall slower in this solution than water and glycerin. However, some of these results were unexpected. For example: 0.00.50 seconds took
