Did you know, if you add salt or ice to anything cold the temperature drops? In my experiment, I wanted to find out if different materials impact the rate of ice melting. Before starting this experiment, I know sugar and salt dissolve in water and sand turns into mud. I predict that the results of this experiment will be that the sugar and salt will make the ice melt at a faster rate than the sand because sugar and salt dissolve in water and sand does not.
To complete this experiment I will need sugar, sand, salt and ice. Sugar is grouped in monosaccharide, monosaccharide is also another word for word for sugar. Did you know the monosaccharide of cane sugar has been around for two thousand years? Sugar began spreading largely throughout the 17th and 19th centuries to the west Indians and other tropical islands. When …show more content…
The normal freezing point of water is zero degrees celsius which means any temperature above this will make ice melt. Also water is H2O or hydrogen and oxygen so, freezing and melting water takes about ten minutes. In my experiment, the object that is going to be testing will be, the rate of ice melting with and without objects in the same temperature setting to see if one melt significantly faster than the other two.
Also, my experiment is using salt, NaCL is the scientific term. Salt is made up of sodium and chloride ions. Salt is found in two main places sea water and sodium chloride mineral, halite which is also know as rock salt. There are even places that are so well know for so much salt there that they have been named after it, like Tuzla in Bosnia is named “place of salt”.
Sand is silicon dioxide in the form of quartz. Earth is mainly made up of rocks and minerals including sand and many others. But unlike other minerals on earth, quartz is hard because it has water in it. It has water because streams, rivers and oceans carry quartz making them the light color we know them as
