Explanation
Trial 1
The dyed red water will not seep into the blue cold water.
My guess was indeed correct and red water did not interfere with the blue water.
Because the molecules in the blue water are much closer together because its cold and well the red water has warm/hot water and the molecules are everywhere. The molecules in the blue water are so dense that they’re making a layer so that the molecules from the red jar do not come through.
Trial 2
I think this time blue on top will fail and seep into the red.
So my guess was correct again. The blue water did slowly enter the red water.
The reason for this is because of density and how dense the cold water really is. That’s why when you put the cold water on top the molecules would want to sink towards the bottom of the jar which is basically the conclusion of Trial 2.
Trial 3
I’m pretty sure that the green water will just drop completely into the yellow water.
The conclusion did match my guess and the green water did quickly interact with the yellow water.
Obviously the green water was much more dense than the yellow water because the green water mixed immediately with the yellow water, clearly proving the green water to be more dense.
Trial 4
I do think that the yellow water will remain in it’s place.
Again my guess’s results were correct the yellow water remained where it was.
The green water that’s on the bottom creates a layer because of how dense the molecules are in it, therefore the yellow water is not allowed to mix with the green.
Analysis questions/answers
1. Q-Based on your observations in the lab, what do you think happens to the majority of water (not ice) at the poles? A-The majority of the water freezes because water is the only molecule that doesn’t sink, so the water becomes ice.
2. Q-Based on your observations in the lab, what do you think happens to most of the water at the equator? A-The majority of water at the equator
