    The student conducted an experiment using tea bags in water at different temperatures to observe how temperature affects the movement of particles. They recorded observations over 3 minutes as the tea dispersed in room temperature, cold, and hot water. The tea dispersed fastest in hot water, slowest in cold water, with room temperature water in between. This provides evidence that higher temperatures cause particles to move faster due to increased kinetic energy, allowing the tea to disperse more quickly in the water.

    Tea Bag Activity


    In this activity, you will make observations of tea bags placed in water at different temperatures and
    investigate the effects of the different temperatures!

    Ways of Thinking and Doing Science (WOTD)


    ● Follow instructions given to complete an experiment safely.
    ● Make observations and record them in an appropriate table format.
    ● Manipulate different apparatus to make accurate measurements/observations.

    Apparatus

    Transparent cup Stopwatch Tea bags x 3 (identical if possible)


    Procedure

    1. Prepare cold water by putting water into the fridge or melting some ice in water.
    2. Prepare hot water by boiling some water. Handle the hot water with care.
    3. Fill the transparent cup with water at room temperature. Prepare a tea bag and place it into the cup
    gently. Start the stopwatch.
    4. Take a photo of the cup from the side view every 30 seconds for a total of 3 minutes (i.e. 30 secs, 1
    min, 1 min 30 secs, and so on). Do not disturb the water! Insert your photos on the next page.
    5. Record the time taken for the colour of the water to become uniform in the space below.
    6. Repeat steps 3 to 5, replacing the water at room temperature with cold water in the second
    experiment, and with hot water in the third experiment.

    Recording Observations

    1. Record the time taken for the tea to be dispersed uniformly in the beaker of room-temperature
    water, cold water and hot water, in a suitable table below.

    3. Describe your observations of how the tea behaves in each type of water.

    In the room-temperature water, …


    It takes at least 150 seconds for the water to change its colour, the colour changed faster in the room-
    temperature water than the cold water and slower than the hot water.

    In the cold water, …


    It took the most amount of time to change its colour. It took more than 4 minutes to change colour.

    In the hot water, …


    The colour changed the fastest in the hot water.

    After a long time, …


    All the waters absorbed the tea particles and changed colour.

    Discussion Questions

    1. What macroscopic evidence do you have that particles of liquids must be moving at all times?

    At all temperatures, the water will absorb the tea particles and change colour but it will take time and
    for each temperature, the time that the water changes colour varies.

    2.  What is the relationship between the behavior of the tea particles and the temperature of the water
    samples?

    The higher the temperature of the water, the faster the tea particles move.

    3. Using the kinetic particle theory, explain the relationship between the behavior of the tea particles
    and the temperature of the water. Support your explanation with evidence.

    As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the tea particles increases. The hot water
    absorbed the tea the fastest. Thus it changed colour the fastest.

    4.  What conclusion can be drawn about the speed of particle movement and temperature?

    At a higher temperature, the tea particles moves faster.
