Heating and cooling experiment
This experiment will show how water reacts to extreme temperatures of hot and cold. The equipment you will need for this experiment include:
- A small empty beaker
- A bigger beaker with ice
- A flask with coloured liquid, the tube with markings on it
- A kettle
Method and observations:
- Place the flask with coloured liquid in the small empty beaker
- Pour the boiling water in the beaker and let it rest for a minute. You will see the level of liquid in the tube rising
- Now remove the flask from the beaker and place it in the beaker with ice
- Let it rest there and observe the level of the liquid in the tube falling as the liquid cools
