Presentation transcript:

Convection and density The density of a substance depends on how far apart its particles are. If water, oil and air are mixed together, they will settle out in order of density. Which one will rise to the top? The air is least dense and rises to the top. The water is the most dense and sinks to the bottom. This is important in explaining how heat is transferred by convection.

Convection currents in a liquid The movement of hotter areas in a liquid can be seen using potassium permanganate as a dye. This cycle is called a convection current. Can you use the concept of density to explain how the convection current moves?

How does convection in a liquid occur?

Explaining convection

Convection currents in a coal mine When shaft mining was first used to mine coal, convection currents caused by an underground fire were used to ventilate the shafts. Why do you think miners don’t use this method anymore?
