Title: Stop the Leak
1Stop the Leak
2Observations
- When adding water to the bottle with the cap off,
the water leaked. - The water came out at a steady flow.
- As the water leaked out, the bottle contracted.
- When you put the cap on the bottle, the leak
stopped completely.
3Theory
- With the cap off, the atmosphere around the
bottle opening forces down on the water surface
in the bottle. - The result is water leaks out of the hole from
opening of the side of the bottle. - With the cap on there is no more force coming in
and it stops the leaking. - With the cap on there is no pressure on the gas
particles in the bottle in therefore less
pressure to force the water out.
4Conclusion
- There is air pressure on the outside of the
bottle that is pushing into the bottle, therefore
it keeps the water from leaking.
5The Index Card Show
6Experiment
- Place an index card on the top of the flask
- Flip the flask/index card upside down.
- Remove your bottom hand, but leave the index card
alone.
7How does this work
- The force of the air on the flask and the note
card and the water is more on the outside so
thats why it keeps it up, so if you dont put
the flask full of water the air is also pushing
on the note card and air is heavier then water so
the air wont have a higher pressure pushing on to
the note card to keep it up
8- The note card held the water, and the note card
stayed on the flask.

The act or process of changing position or
place.
9Full of Hot Air?
10What Happens to The Balloon?
- The balloon is on the top of the Erlenmeyer
flask. - When the Erlenmeyer flask is on the hot plate the
steam from the boiling water inflates the
balloon.
11Ice Cold
- After you let the flask cool down in the ice bath
you then put the flask back onto the hot plate
but with no balloon. - Once the water is at a boil you then take the
flask off the hot plate and place it on to the
table.
- You then place the balloon over the flask and you
see the balloon inflate slowly. - Then after it inflates you place the flask back
into the ice bath and watch the balloon inflate
into the flask.
12How it WORKS!
- The balloon inflates because the boiling water
gives off a gas to inflate it. - Then when the flask in the cold water with the
balloon, it will start to deflate into the flask.
There is low pressure in the cold water and there
is high pressure out side of the flask.
13Molecular Motion
- Pressure- The gas from the steam inflates the
balloon because the molecules have no where to
go. - Volume- As more air malicious come inside of the
balloon the balloon gets bigger and the balloon
needs more room. - Temperature- When water is at the boiling
temperature gas is formed and there is high
pressure made. When is the cold water there is
low pressure.

15The Mysterious Water
16- 4) We then put the beakers on the hot plate
- 5) The heat makes the air trapped in the smaller
beaker expand (when air heats up it expands). -
- 1) Start off with a 500mL beaker with 100mL of
water. - 2) we put blue food dye in the water.
- 3) then put a 40mL beaker in the bigger beaker.
17- 6) The air is pushing down on the water inside
the small beaker. - 7) Due to the fact that they need equal out the
pressure - 8) So air is escaping from the inside beaker
- 9) Then when you cool it down the air molecules
come closer together and slow down. - 10) After that water fills up in the smaller
beaker. Because there is less pressure inside so
it equals out from the outside.
18The Can Crush!
19experiment
We heated a can with 20 mL if water on a hot
plate. After steam came out, we placed the hot
can in ice water. A popped noise happened and
then the walls of the can crushed in on
themselves.
20The pressure inside the can goes up when the can
is hot. And the pressure in the ice water is
low. So when the two meet, a violent reaction
occurs, and the change in temperature makes the
can implode. the pressure makes the can
implode
21Observations
the can heated up, then steam came out of it.
then we put it in the cold ice bath and the can
totally imploded.
22- we think this happened cause a lot of pressure
builds on the inside of the can. then when you
put the can in the cold water, all of the
pressure rushes out of the can.
