Science Unit 3 Review- Part 2

Students performed an investigation to determine which of the four materials will keep a drink hot the longest. The students gathered 4 different cups, each made of a different material. The cups are the same size. The teacher pours the same amount of hot water in the cups. The students record the temperature of the water in each cup for 4 minutes. The results are in the table.

Part A: Which material will keep the hot drink warm for the longest period of time?

Part B: Which statement BEST supports the answer to Part A?

• The material that will keep the drink warm the longest insulates thermal energy inside the cup.

• The material that will keep the drink warm the longest conducts thermal energy into the cup.

• The material that will keep the drink warm longest conducts thermal energy away from the cup.

• The material that will keep the drink warm the longest insulates thermal energy from entering the cup.

• Particles remain unchanged in structure during boiling.
• Particles condense into a solid when water boils.
• When water freezes, particles slow down and form a solid structure; when it boils, particles gain energy and become gas.
