this week in science, we started meterology. this is the study of the weather. We learnt how to create clouds and how evaporation works. We also had to read a lot of online text books.
When we created clouds, we gave the water droptets a different molecule to attach onto when mr. finley added the smoke on the bottle. This let the watter particles surround the smoke molecule and form a cloud and create condensation.
We also learnt that when things get hot, the particles move away from eachother and the object becomes bigger. SO, if a ball is not fitting in a hole,(dont think badly) then heat the hole. The whole's particles will go away from eachother and therefore, the hole will be bigger ot fit teh ball in. When we run something in cold water, the particles contract and the object becomes smaller.
