Today in Chemistry, we are learning about Particle Theory and Diffusion. Particles are apart of our everyday life for particles are what makes everything. All of the particles are put into 3 groups of matter, Solid, Liquid, and Gas. Particles in each state of matter move differently and give matter a different property's. Diffusion is were you are mixing the particles of say a solid and a liquid so they move from a high concentration to a low concentration.
AIM: To investigate the effect of temperature on rate of diffusion.
Hypothesis - I think that the warm water will diffuse faster than colder because hot water is easier to devolve things with.
Method -
Dish 1 has cold water
Dish 2 has warm water
We put the same amount of Potassium Peregrinate in each of them.
Conclusion -
The warm water spread faster than the cold when they went in. This happened because the hot water had more energy than the cold water making the particles move faster than the colder ones. It is like how when you put hot chocolate powder in your warm water and it dissolves vs when you put it in the cold water and you have to mix it thoroughly before it dissolves completely.
