What will happen to the water which is at three different temperatures, when it is left in the classroom? • Bowl A contains boiling water • Bowl B contains water at room temperature • Bowl C contains ice water
What are we going to do? • Using a thermometer, we are going to take the temperature of the water in each bowl every half an hour during the morning. • We will record the results of each measurement. • We will use the results to discover what happens to the temperature of the water.
The Fair Test • 3 identical plastic bowls • Each bowl is placed in the same area of the classroom • The temperature of the water in each bowl is taken at the same time
What do we think will happen? • Our Prediction:
The Result • The boiling water cooled to the temperature of the room. • The iced water warmed to the temperature of the room. • The bowl with the water already at room temperature, stayed the same.
Our conclusion • Liquids and objects will cool or warm to the temperature of their surroundings.
