By finding the melting point of a known substance one can then observe an unknown substance’s melting point to see if the points are the same and try to figure out the unknown. Experimental Section: The first known substance we used was Biphenyl. 68 degrees Celsius is the known melting point. We used the capillary

    My SRP is determining if the colour of ice affects its melting rate. Ice melts by taking in energy from its surroundings to form heat. This makes the molecules in the ice cube vibrate. As the overall vibration increases‚ the water molecules split from each other turning the ice from a frozen state to a liquid state. Heat can be absorbs in two different ways‚ through direct contact with a hot surface or through radiation of a hot surface nearby. Radiant heat can be contributed by sunlight‚ fires and
