Observing Convection
Aim: To observe convection in a gas
Equipment: Scissors, Paper spiral pattern, string, source of heat (Boiling water, radiator, etc.),
Method: 1. Cut out the spiral pattern below, carefully following the dashed line.
2. Tie a length of cotton through the hole on the top of the spiral
3. Hold the spiral 30=40 cm above a heat source such as a radiator
4. Observe
Observations: The Heat from the Bunsen Burner when lifted up above the Bunsen burner the heat made it move
Explanation: Not sure?
Thank you posting here Chimera. Next time make sure we ask me for an explanation if you're not sure before posting. I'll go through with you in class about how convection relates to this experiment. Keep up the good work :)
