Effect of Heat

 Hi,

In Chemistry we needed to make our final blog post this term and write about the things that we have learned.

Contraction - ( Imploding Can )
What happened to the imploding can was when we heated the can and boiled the water inside the can. Is that the heat diffused through out the can and each particles of the can vibrated that's what made the can spreaded its heat. Then the particles of the can also made the warm water vibrated that us way it boiled.
Then we grabbed an ice cream container and put cold water in the container. Then we grabbed the can with boiling water inside and tipped the can over to the cold water inside the container, and the hot and cold water contracted to each other then the can imploded.
The contraction means is a process of getting smaller, tighter and shorter.

Expansion - ( Ball and Hop )
What we did in Ball and Hoop experiment is that we grabbed the hoot and the ball then we tried to put the ball through the hoot and it fitted through the hoop. When we heated the ball for 30 seconds and tried again if the ball still fits through the hoop and the ball didn't fit through.
How did the ball fit through the hoop at the first time and after heating it up it didn't fit it is because the tiny particles of the ball expanded while it was heating up that is why it didn't fit through the hoop again. How did we made it fit again? We put the hot ball on a cold running water and it got back to normal and it fitted through the hoop and again.
Expansion means the action of becoming larger or more extensive.

Conduction ( Dropping pin )
What happened to the Dropping pin was when we heated the metal rod it conduct/ the heat travelled quickly, and the vibration of the heat travelled through out the metal rod and heat the Vaseline and the pins so the pins dropped on the table. What happened was when we heated the metal rod it conduct/ the heat travelled quickly, and the vibration of the heat travelled through out the metal rod and heat the Vaseline and the pins so the pins dropped on the table. 
Conduction means the process by which sound waves travel through.

Convection in liquid ( permanganate crystal in water )
What we did to this experiment is that we heated one side of the can and put the straw from the opposite side of the fire. Then we dropped the tiny crystal through the straw's hole and let it slide to get to the water, what happened was the crystal diffused throughout the water.
Convection means is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.

Convection in Gas ( Tea Bag Rockets )
What we did in Tea Bag Rocket experiment is we cutted the top bit of the tea bag and pour the tea leaves out, then we spreaded out the tea bag and cut the top part again but this time we have to make the top part is equally aligned. After that we turned the tea bag around and put the top bit to the bottom to make it stand up, then we lighted the tea bag and it flew up wards. 
Convection means is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.
 

English

 Hi,

In English we needed to write a speech and my speech is about ( Students would learn more if school started at 10 AM ) and we needed to pick which side, Agree or Disagree so I pick disagree here is the planning sheet that we have done.

Social Studies

 Hi,

In Social Studies we are doing some elections in groups, what we did was we needed to make some logo's for our party, slogan to attract peoples attention and a speech that's why people will know what we are doing. 

The name of our political party is Go Green because we want to make the environment clean that is why my whole group agreed to the political name. We also made a slogan it is ( THINK FOR THE FUTURE ) after we made our slogan we planned to create our logo because without a logo we wouldn't be able to attract peoples attention so we started making one. Then we created 5 policies for our political party here is the activity that we have done.

The Dropping Pins Experiment

 Hi,

In chemistry we did an experiment and it is called the dropping pins its called the dropping pins because we have to wait for the pins to drop off.

-Times

The first pin dropped at 4.41 sec

The second pin dropped at 14.28 sec

The third pin dropped at 27.48 sec

The fourth pin dropped at 53.88 sec

The last and fifth pin dropped at 1:46.26

What happened?

What happened was when we heated the metal rod it conduct/ the heat travelled quickly, and the vibration of the heat travelled through out the metal rod and heat the Vaseline and the pins so the pins dropped on the table. 

Imploding can

 Hi,

In science we did an experiment were we had to heat up a can with a hot water inside and wait for the steam to come out and put the can on top of a cold water. We also needed to answer a few question here is the questions that we did.

What was happening to the water on the bunsen burner?

The water particles on the bunsen burner was getting heat up and the heat from the bunsen burner diffused throughout the can. 

What happened to the water particles when we put it in the ice cream container?

What happened was the hot and cold water contracted to each other when we tipped the boiling water to the cold water that was in the ice cream container. Then the can imploded.

Write that Essay Sentences

The ' W ' Sentence - Makes the sentence sound thoughtful and knowledgeable. 

Remember the rule: Not ever ' w ' words works as sentences starter. Remember to put a your comma in when the parts of the sentences affected why your ' w ' are finished.

The ' ed ' sentence

Remember the rule-When you finish your-ed phrase, place a comma, then write the rest of the sentence.

Som-ing words- Frustrated, surprised, excited, committed, undaunted, determined, overpowered, concerned, cornered, delighted, enthralled, wanted.

Social Studies Infographic

 Hi,

In Social Studies we learned about Elected Government and we needed to make an infographic and we needed to use Canva or Pictochart. So I did my work using canva and it was a new thing to me and I needed to learn how to use it, Pictochart was also new to me but still choose canva because I think it was easier here is the infographic that I have done.
