this is what i wrote
I have conducted an experiment of whether sugar will dissolve faster in hot or cold water. My hypothesis is that the sugar will most likely dissolve much faster in hot water than in cold water due to the Brownian movement. The more kinetic energy water has, the more rapid sugar will break down to its molecular form. When heat is added to any substance the melting process will accelerate to a much faster rate. For example if you put an ice cube into cold water and another into hot, the one in the hot water will undoubtedly melt at a faster pace.
so will this be consider the hypothesis or the introduction?
its a group thing.. and i was not there when they did the experiment, so all i know is that i have to write about " does sugar dissolve quicker in hot or cold water". thats all the info. i got from the group. and i have never done this before.
thank u very much for the help!
You mentioned melting. It has nothing to do with melting, so you have to use the term "dissolving". In your write-up, call the mixture of water and sugar a solution.The reason the hot water dissolves more is because it has faster moving molecules which are spread further apart than the molecules in the cold water. With bigger gaps between the molecules in the hot water, more sugar molecules can fit in between. Technically, your hypothesis should be incorporated into your introduction, but I think you have to write a little bit more; talk about what Brownian movement is and give general examples.
Do you have a list of things you have to accomplish?
