The Plan
* Q. What am I trying to find out?
* A. How the volume of water affects the time that it takes to boil.
* Q. What do I think will happen?
* A. The larger the volume the longer the time to boil.
* Q. Why do I think it will happen using scientific ideas?
* A. The larger the volume, the more atoms you need to heat.
* Q. What will I measure?
* A. Time versus volume.
* Q. What will I alter between observations?
* A. The volume of water.
* Q. What will I do to ensure a fair test?
* A. Keep everything the same except the input variable: volume.
* Q. How will I decide on the values of the variables that I will be using?
* A. Values will be chosen to enable the experiment to be carried out in a reasonable time, and to give a good range for trend analysis.
* Q. How many measurements will I take and how will they be spaced out?
* A. 50ml to 200ml in intervals of 50ml, i.e. four different measurements.
* Q. What equipment will I need and how will I use it?
* A. Timer; Beaker; Tripod; Bunsen Burner; Gauze; Heat Proof Mat (HPM); Goggles:
* Q. How will I take any safety situations into account?
