Particle Theory

This week we are focusing on particle theory and fusion

Particles:

• All matter is made up of particles.

• All particles of one substance are identical

• The particles of matter are in constant motion

• Temperature affects the speed at which particles move

• Particles have forces of attraction between them

• There are spaces between particles. 

Aim:
Investigate if particles diffuse faster in hot or cold water.
Hypothesis:
I think that the particles will diffuse faster in hot water because I think that when particles are heated they move faster. 

Equipment:

• 2 containers

• Potassium Permanganate

• Hot Water

• Cold Water

Method:

1. Fill one container with Hot water and the other with Coldwater.

1. Add a little bit of Potassium Permanganate

1. Observe the results
