Molecule Science



In science class we are learning about molecules. So we did an experiment to show how molecules move faster in hot water and slower in cold water.


We put red food coloring in the hot water on the left and blue food coloring in the cold water on the right. Chance is pointing out in this picture that the red food coloring is spreading out through the glass faster than the blue food coloring. Which of course happens because molecules move faster in hot water.
Chance drew a picture of his observation right after we put the food coloring in each glass and again in 10 minutes see what changes had occurred. The color will spread out evenly in both glasses it just takes longer in the warm water.


Chance loves thescience experiments    we do in school. I know I didn't learn about molecules in first grade, It'sgreat that Chance is getting this base knowledge of science so young.
