Scientific Report On Heat Transfer

Heat Transfer

Aim: Our Aim Is To Record The Temperature Of The Water After We Have
Left The Nut In There For A Designated Period Of Time.

Hypothesis: If We Put The Heated Nut Into The Water Then The Water
Temperature Will Rise.

Apparatus: For This Experiment We Need: Container, 200ml Of Water,
Thermometer, Bunsen Burner, Stop Watch, Matches And A Metal Tong

Method:

1. Light The Bunsen Burner
2. Change The Bunsen Burners Flame To Blue
3. Combine The Metal Tongs With The Nut And Wire
4. Hold It Over The Bunsen Burner For The Designated Amount Of
Time
5. Take It Off The Bunsen Burner And Place It Straight Into The
Water
6. Leave It In For The Designated Amount Of Time
7. Place The Thermometer In And Let It Sit There For About 30
Seconds
8. Take The Thermometer Reading And Put It In The Results Section

Results: Time In Bunsen Burner Water Temperature

30 Seconds 3.1 Degrees
1 Minute 3.3 Degrees
2 Minutes 3.7 Degrees

Conclusion: Our Results Prove Our Hypothesis Is True " If We Put The
Heated Nut Into The Water Then The Water Temperature Will Rise ". Also
We Porved That Water IS A Very Poor Conducter Of Heat
