PROCEDURE:
Element of
Suggested Activities
the Plan
Awareness 1. Prayer
2. Checking of the attendance
3. Checking/Passing of the assignment
4. The teacher will ask the following questions to the students;
a. What happens to solids, liquids, or gases when they absorb or release heat?
b. What if you continue to heat the water further until it boils? What do you think will
happen to the temperature of the water?
c. Does heat affect all kinds of materials in the same way? Explain your answer.
Objective
At the end of this activity, you should be able to explain the scattering of the dye in water at different
temperatures.
Materials Needed:
3 transparent containers
1 thermometer
3 plastic droppers
hot water
tap water (room temperature)
cold water
dye (Food color)
Procedure:
1. Fill the three containers separately with cold water, tap water, and hot water.
2. Measure the temperature of the water in each container. Record your measurements in Table 2 below.
3. With the dropper, place a drop of dye into the center of each container as shown in Figure 2. (Note: It is
better if you place drops of dye into the three samples simultaneously.)
Figure 1
4. Carefully observe and compare the behavior of the dye in the three containers. Write down your observations
in Table 2.
Q1. What similarities and differences did you observe when a drop of dye was added to each container?
Q2. In which container did the dye scatter the fastest? In which di it scatter the slowest?
Q3. How do you relate the temperature of the water to the rate of scattering of the dye?
Q4. In which container are the particles of water moving fastest? In which container are the particles moving
slowest?
Objective
After this activity, you should be able to answer this question:
What happens to the temperature of water while changing from ice to liquid water?
Materials needed:
crushed ice
1 glass container
timer (stopwatch)
stirring rod
Procedure:
1. Put some crushed ice and a little cold water into the container.
2. Stir the contents of the container for few seconds; then, measure the temperature of the contents.
Avoid letting the thermometer touch the bottom of the container to ensure that you are actually
measuring the temperature of the water.
3. Repeat step 2 every 2 minutes. Make sure that you stir and measure exactly the same way each time. Record
each measurement in Table 3.
Q1. Why does the ice inside the container melt after sometime?
4. Continue measuring until the ice has totally melted and even after it has already melted completely (around
4-6 minutes more).
5. Construct a temperature against time graph. Draw a smooth line that passes through almost all the points.
Q2. Which is your dependent variable? Which is your independent variable? (Note that the independent
quantity is plotted along the X-axis while the dependent quantity is plotted along the Y-axis.
Q4. Describe the temperature of the water while the ice melting.
Q5. Describe the temperature of the water after the ice has melted.
Activity No. ____
What happens to the temperature of water as it boils?
Materials:
beaker
stirrer
thermometer (can measure up to 100°C)
alcohol burner
water (hot water)
stand or tripod with wire gauze
Procedure:
1. Fill the beaker with 100 mL hot water and place it above the alcohol burner using the tripod with wire gauze.
2. Measure and record the temperature of the water every 2 minutes until it boils. Once the water starts to boil,
continue taking the temperature for 4-6 more minutes.
Q2. What similarities and differences have you noticed between your graphs in Activity 2 and Activity 3?
