Question

results:The ink in Flask A has spread over a small area.The ink in Flask B is spreading more quickly than the ink in Flask A.The ink in Flask C has already spread evenly throughout the water.Which table shows possible temperatures for the water in each flask?How could you tell?

Answer 1

A drop of ink will spread faster as higher the temperature is. The higher the temperature, the more agitated the molecules will be, so they will move faster. So the mobility of the particles is related to their temperature.

So:

Particles in Flask C show the greatest mobility of the particles, this flask will have the highest temperature.

Particles in Flask A show the least mobility, this flask will have the lowest temperature.

Answer:

Flask A 10°C

Flask B 25 °C

Flask C 50 °C

The mobility of the particles is related to their temperature. The particles in Flask A show the least mobility, and the particles in Flask C show the greatest mobility.
