LT: To collect evidence of how heat effects states of matter.
Assignment:
Students will investigate the freezing point of coconut oil. Before they can conduct a physical investigation, students must conduct research to find the boiling, melting, and freezing point of coconut oil at sea level. Afterwards, in groups, the students must design and submit an experimental investigation to measure the freezing point of coconut oil using a hot plate, a thermometer, and an ice bath. After the students have designed the experiment, they are allowed to conduct their experimental investigation to identify the freezing point of coconut oil. Students should prepare a complete lab based on thr RMS lab format.
