Think o0f a spoon in a hot pot of water. How do the particles affect the particles of the spoon?
by convection and the particles go slower
Which type of spoon is better to stir boil water?
I think Plastic or wooden spoon is better because wooden spoon wouldn't be hot like the steel ones if we stir it in the boiling water
How can you tell that the particles in a cup of water are moving slower or faster?
hot water has fast moving particles, and cold water has slow moving particles
What is the difference between making cookies with hot water than with cold water?
More particles can be dissolved in hot water then in cold.
What happened to the kinetic energy of the hot water and cold water particles?
the particles of the hot water decreased by -20 which means that they where 480 calories transferred out of the hot water and the cold water increased 20 which means that they were 480 calories transferred into the cold water.

Think of a metal spoon in a pot of hot water. How do the particles of the water affect the particles of the spoon?
Conduction is what transfers the heat in this process. The fast moving particles in the hot electric coil collide with the slow-moving particles in the cool pot. The transfer of the heat causes the pot's particles to move faster. Then the pot's particles collide with the water's particles, which in turn collide with the particles of the spoon. As the particles move faster, the metal spoon becomes hotter.
How does a spoon get hot in hot water?
Conduction.
What in the house uses conduction?
A spoon in a cup of tea.If a spoon was left in a hot cup of tea conduction would happen. Particles in the part of the spoon that is in the hot cup of tea will use the heat/thermal energy of this as kinetic energy. These particles will then pass this kinetic energy (whilst still keeping some in themselves,) to the particles next to them. This will continue until all the particles in the spoon have kinetic energy.
Why does a metal spoon feel hotter than a wooden spoon when in hot water?
because metal is a conductor which likes hot things
Why does energy transfer from a hob to a spoon?
The heat energy is transferred from the hob to the metal spoon through conduction; this is where particles that vibrate a lot due to their heat energy then 'pass on' these vibrations to the next adjacent particle which does the same and so on. Metals are a good conductor of heat so that is why the metal spoon gets hot, however, wood is not a good conductor of heat and so the wooden saucepan handle doesn't get hot.
What are examples of conductivity?
When you hand touches the hot handle of a pot. When you touch an ice cube and it melts in your hand. When the spoon touches hot water and the spoon gets hot. When the spoon touches cold ice cream and the ice cream melts.
Look at figure 6-1 in your text Explain the transfer of energy in diagram and tell why the metal spoon gets hot?
part of the spoon is heated by contact with the hot water .heat is transferred through the metal spoon, particle by paricle, until the entire spoon is hot.
Which type of spoon is better to stir boil water?
I think Plastic or wooden spoon is better because wooden spoon wouldn't be hot like the steel ones if we stir it in the boiling water
Why does the motion of particles affect a thermometer reading?
because the heat is to hot.
How does heating sugar in a spoon differ from dissolving it in a cup of hot water?
because the spoon is smaller making it harder to dissolve
How can you tell that the particles in a cup of water are moving slower or faster?
hot water has fast moving particles, and cold water has slow moving particles
