Proposed a laboratory activity which deals with collision theory
Hot Water vs. Cold Water
Materials:
Timer/stopwatch
2 different color Balloons (Blue &Red)
12 oz Of water (6oz Cold,6oz hot)
Camera to document
2 Alka Seltzers
2 Empty 16.9 Oz balloons
Procedure:
Set-up 1

1. Add 6 oz of cold water to a 16.9Fl oz bottles.


2. Break one Alka Seltzer into the balloon.
3. Put the Alka Seltzer into the balloon
4. Attach the balloon to the top of the water bottle.
5. Lift the balloon up, letting the Alka Seltzer fall into the bottle.
6. Observe and record the observation
7. As you can see the Alka Seltzer reacts with the water, filling the balloon with carbon
dioxide.
Set-up 2

1. Add 6 oz of hot water to a 16.9fl oz bottle.


2. Break one Alka Seltzer up and put into the balloon like the first set-up.
3. Put the Alka Seltzer into the balloon
4. Attach the balloon to the top of the water bottle.
5. Lift the balloon, letting the Alka Seltzer fall into the hot water bottle.
6. Observe and record the observation
7. A lot of pressure was in the bottle so I held the balloon to the bottle.
Conclusion:
Therefore, both started with the same amount of water ended with different amounts. In hot
water, molecules are moving around more, so there are more collisions between the water
molecules and a solid. This is because heat increases molecular movement, causing more
collisions between the water molecules and the solid.
