ACTIVITY SHEET 4
Are the particles of matter moving?

I. OBJECTIVE/S:
After performing the activity, you should be able to infer that the particles of matter always
move.

II. MATERIALS:
1 cup of tap water
1 piece of wide mouth PET bottle (can hold 1 cup of water)
½ cup of vinegar in small plastic container
1 drop of food coloring (any dark color)
1 dropper

III. PROCEDURES:
Part A. Food coloring in water.
1. Pour once cup of tap water into a transparent PET bottle.
2. Add one small drop of food coloring slowly along the side of the transparent bottle.

Q1. Describe what you observe after adding the food coloring.

3. Set aside the bottle with food coloring without disturbing the setup. Describe the
appearance of the contents of the bottle after 10 minutes. Compare it with the appearance
when you left the bottle earlier.
Q2. What happens to the food coloring dropped in the bottle containing water?

Q3. Think about the food coloring and water as made up of particles. With your
groupmates, discuss and give your reason/s for the observations you made in Q1. Draw
the illustration to further explain your reason/s.

Part B. Smelling the fumes of vinegar.

1. Remove the cover of the bottle containing a vinegar solution and place it 1 yard (1 arm
length) away from you.
2. Allow it to stand for 5 to 10 minutes.
Q4. Can you smell the vinegar? With your group, provide a possible explanation on why
you can still smell the vinegar even if the vinegar solution is placed pone yard from you.
