The Dependency Of Particles In Drops On A Candle

293 Words2 Pages

Everything in the world is made of tiny particles that have different amounts of stickiness, are differently sized and spaced, and have different speeds of motion. Particles are sticky, but have different amounts of stickiness. In the lab, Swab the Deck, I saw the alcohol slowly disappear, because the alcohol particles were sticky to the air particles. In the lab, Drops on a Candle, I watched the oil spread out and leave residue while the water stayed in a dome and left no residue, because oil is sticky to wax and water is sticky to itself. Particles are different sizes and spaced differently. In the lab, nosey balloons, I smelled mint through a balloon, because the scent particles were smaller than the balloon particles which allowed the

    Next, we determined the mass of the penny by placing it on a balance. The mass of the penny was 2.47 grams. Afterwards, we placed the penny in a beaker filled with 20 mL of 6 M HCl. In the end we put the beaker in the fume hood and allowed it to sit overnight. During day two of the penny lab, we removed the penny skin from the beaker using tweezers.

    Our hypothesis was partially correct, the property changing substances did have the weakest coherency with the lowest drop counts of 23(carbonated), and 14(soap), and pure water did have the strongest bond. What we also found was the the salt also dampened the liquid’s ability to hold onto a penny in large volumes, as all the different salts had a drop average of 24(28x2 & 16), five less than Tap water’s drop count (30). This led us to conclude that pure water has the strongest bond and that all foreign materials weaken the coherency of water. This evidence has led me to believe that similar substances are attracted and are more coherent towards themselves, in this case the water pieces get separated and generally less connected on a really small level due to the obstruction of foreign objects, this is why the different salts perform better than the huge air bubbles or the slippery properties of soap since the latter is more obstructive and the former dissolves with the water and blocks less. When studying a few other groups’ conclusions and data we did indeed find differences: some groups had differing data where a solution had better coherence than water itself which led to differing conclusions.

  • Explain Why Did The Dime Pull It Off And Holds More Drops Than The Penny

    90 Words  | 1 Pages

    In conclusion, the dime was able to pull it off and hold more drops than the penny. My hypothesis was incorrect because, I thought the penny would hold more drops than the dime because the penny was bigger and I thought it would absorb more. But the dime held more. Preston and I even ran the tests or investigation three times for each coin. The one question I had was ,what if the penny was stacked 1 time and the dime was stacked one time,would it make a difference ?

    Lab Report- Penny Drop Lab Abstract: This lab is called the Penny Drop Lab. In this lab, your goal is to find out how many drops of water you can fit on the top surface of a penny. You are trying to find the surface tension between two liquids. In this case, we used soapy water and plain water. Adding soap ends up reducing the surface tension of the water.

  • Drops Of Water On A Penny Lab Report

    In the “Drops of Water on a Penny” lab, I used the pipette to place 30 drops of regular water on the penny. As I was placing the drops of water on the penny, the water began to form a bubble on the penny, sticking together tightly so that it had risen above the penny. This occurred because of the high surface tension water has due to its hydrogen bonding. On the other penny with the soapy water, I was only able to place 24. Soap is a surfactant to water by interfering the hydrogen bonding and decreasing the surface tension so that the water does not stick to each as well as would have.

    Title: THE BALLOON INFLATION REACTION Introduction: Chemistry is one thing that makes us understand and gives us reasons of why certain reactions gives certain results. In this experiment we will be illustrating the reaction between baking powder and vinegar and see what happens to the balloon that is attached to it. Hypothetically the reaction of the vinegar and baking powder will produce carbon dioxide which will inflate the balloon. If the more vinegar may happen that when more vinegar is added to the baking powder it may produce more carbon dioxide thus the balloons diameter increases.
