YOU HAVE TWO CUPS OF WATER AND ONE PLASTIC BAG. ONE CUP IS HOT WATER AND ANOTHER IS COLD WATER.

Mini investigation question three: What will happen when hot water in a plastic bag is placed into cold water?

My prediction: My prediction is caused by the difference in temperature between the two types of water placed with a plastic boundary. This will happen because heat will still pass through the plastic boundary and permits heat transfer.

Temperature of hot water = __100_____ C

Temperature of cold water = ___0___ C

Predicted final temperature = ___30-50____ C

Procedures:

1) Pour the hot water into the plastic bag. Place the plastic bag of hot water into the cup that is filled with cold water.

2) Stick one thermometer into the hot water in the plastic bag and another into the cold water in the cup. This is a picture of the set-up:
