Introduction/Thinking Questions What is boiling? Is boiling always hot? What happens to a liquid when it boils? What is the boiling point of water (in Celsius)? What do you think will happen to the temperature of boiling water if you continue to heat it for 5 minutes? What is boiling? Is boiling always hot? What happens to a liquid when it boils? What is the boiling point of water (in Celsius)? What do you think will happen to the temperature of boiling water if you continue to heat it for 5 minutes?

I. Define the Problem: We do not know what will happen to the temperature of solid water as we heat it to water vapor.

II. Focus Question: What happens to the temperature of ice as we heat it to boiling and continue to boil it?

III. Prediction: I think that the temperature will _____. I think this because______.

IV. Share: Most people think the temperature will go up, a few said it will stay the same.

V. Plan of Action A. Materials: Hot plate, beaker, ice, thermometer, salt, goggles, tongs A. Materials: Hot plate, beaker, ice, thermometer, salt, goggles, tongs

V. Plan of Action B. Independent Variable: heat or energy, time B. Independent Variable: heat or energy, time

V. Plan of Action C. Dependent Variable: temperature C. Dependent Variable: temperature

V. Plan of Action D. Control: Amount of water/ice D. Control: Amount of water/ice

V. Plan of Action E. Procedure: 1. Put a few milliliters of water in your beaker. Fill it up with ice and stir gently with thermometer. E. Procedure: 1. Put a few milliliters of water in your beaker. Fill it up with ice and stir gently with thermometer.

V. Plan of Action/ E. Procedure Continued: 2. When the temperature has not changed for 2 minutes (stops falling) record the temperature. You are ready to begin the lab.

V. Plan of Action/ E. Procedure Continued: 3. Place the beaker on the cold hot plate. Stir the ice continually with the thermometer and record the temperature every 30 seconds. Do not allow the thermometer to touch the bottom of the beaker. Continue heating until the water boils.

V. Plan of Action/ E. Procedure Continued: 4. Once it boils, heat for an additional 5 min.

V. Plan of Action/ E. Procedure Continued: 5. Record all information in a chart.

V. Plan of Action/ E. Procedure Continued: 6. Repeat procedure the next day adding salt to the ice.
