convection
My slide show how convection works by heated particles moving up and then cooling down to fall back to the hot plate where they heat back up again so that they move up again.

can experiment
Aim to see what happens when a can of hot water gets put in a cold tub of water.
Hypothesis I think that the can will collapse and the can will fill with water very fast.
The Method we put hot water in a sprite can then put on an element to boil the water then when we put it in a tub of cold water see what happens.
Results the water is pulled up into the can and is it crushed by the condensing gas in the can from the boiling water.
discussion why this happened; this happened to because the water makes a air tight seal, steam takes up a lot of space and when the steam cools it contracts a lot pulling the walls of the can and water into the empity spqace in the can.

Pricing of cookies
This is us trying to find the right price for our cookies we are selling
When working out the price that we wanted the cookies to sell we took in account how much we wanted to make in the end and the minimum amount of cookies we need to sell to make a profit. because cookies are really good and people will pay anything to have very good cookies.
After making the cookie we will be doing quality control to see in the cookies are good and tasty as well as checking for other things like size, shape and icing and wee maybe giving out samples to see what people think of them and whether they are worth the price.
This is our price compared to Cookie times we are selling one large cookie for 1 dollar and 3 small cookies for 2 dollars. Cookie times large cookies are 1 dollar as well but I couldn't find anything for two dollars getting 3 cookies
Companies | Quantity | Price | |
Cookie time | 1 cookie | 1.00 dollar | |
Cookie town (our company) | 1 cookie | 1.00 dollar |

cookies
For the enterprise products we are doing we are doing chocolate Afghan cookies and we're selling at the low low price of 1 dollar for a large and 2 dollars for 3 small!
The afghan cookies will be chocolate as they should be. The quality will really depend on the quality of the ingredients but we will try our best to make the best quilty product we can. very cookie will be the standard cookie size and the small cookies will just be a smaller version of them. for the cookies, we will not need the have packaging as cookies are a small snack that you can just carry around and eat as you please. making the cookies will be very easy as the ingredients are very basic this is our ingredients list and how to make it. As cookies are as the food they will be in the foods category for the enterprise day. our cookie will be fresh backed and will be hot and yummy! straight from the oven.

particle theory
what are we learning in chemicals?
Particle theory is the six rules of particles these are the six rules. these rule help determine how a substance will behave.
- all matter is made up of particles
- all particles in a pure substance are the same
- there is space between all particles
- particles are always moving
- there are attractive forces between particles
- temperature affects the speed at which particles move particles
Diffusion: Is the movement of particles from areas of high concentration to low concentration.
e.g perfume, or like if you add hot water to cold water the water will be hot on one side and cold on the other but over time the hot water will mix with the cold water (in a matter of seconds).
Aim: To observe the effect of temperature on the speed of diffusion.
hypnosis: hot= fast cold=slow
method: we added potassium permanganate to hot and cold water to see how fast the diffusion would happen.
The explanation: the hot water moves the die much faster than the cold one it did this because the particles in the hot water were moving much faster because particle theory rule number six and also because there more heat = energy.
