Study Notes
Change in States of Water
- Water exists in three states: solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (water vapor).
- The mist-spraying machine lowers surrounding temperature by spraying water mist into the air, causing evaporation.
- Evaporation is the change from liquid to gas. It occurs at temperatures below boiling point.
- Melting is the change from solid to liquid. Ice melts at 0°C (freezing point).
- Freezing is the change from liquid to solid. Water freezes at 0°C (melting point).
- Boiling is the change from liquid to gas. Water boils at 100°C (boiling point).
- Condensation is the change from gas to liquid. Steam (water vapor) condenses to form water when cooled.
- Temperature remains constant during changes of state. Energy is either absorbed from or released to the surroundings.
Processes of Change in Water
- Water exists in three physical states: solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (water vapor).
- The physical states are characterized by the arrangement of water particles.
- Solid particles are closely packed in a regular pattern. Liquid particles are closely packed, but not arranged regularly. Gas particles are far apart.
Practical 2.1: Heating Ice to Steam
- Aim: To study the change in temperature when ice is heated to steam.
- Apparatus/materials: Alcohol thermometer, beaker, Bunsen burner, insulating mat, tripod, wire gauze, gas lighter, stand/clamp, crushed ice,
- Procedure: Set up the apparatus, make sure the alcohol thermometer does not touch the bottom of the beaker, light the Bunsen burner, record thermometer readings every minute, turn off the burner after water boils for two minutes, stir the water/ice before taking temperature readings
- Results: Record time (min) and temperature (°C) in a table.
- Discussion:
- When ice melts, temperature does not change.
- When water boils, temperature does not change.
- Graph: Draw a line graph of temperature against time, using results obtained.
Skill Builder 2.1: Drawing Line Graphs
- Line graphs show the relationship between two variables.
- Steps for drawing a line graph:
- Title the graph.
- Place independent variable on x-axis, dependent variable on y-axis.
- Choose a suitable scale for the graph axes, using the available space.
- Mark the points (data from the table) on the graph.
- Connect the points with a line or a smooth curve.
Skill Practice 2.1
- Procedure: Repeat experiment in practical with water/ice, record time (min) and temperature (°C).
- Draw a line graph of temperature against time.
- The graph shows the change of temperature in ice and water when heated or cooled.
Additional Notes
- Anti-fog sprays contain chemicals that prevent water droplets from forming on surfaces, instead allowing the water to condense into a thin water film.
- Alcohol feels cool when rubbed on the skin due to its quick evaporation, which absorbs energy from the skin.
