Miss Cason to go through the fill in the gaps answers

Mr Pickett asks selected students for their answers for the problem solving question.

Level 6 Model AnswerUsing key words and good English

• Gas particles would be more likely to spread

(diffuse) in to the air quicker as they have no

bond and move around freely at speed. In

comparison liquid particles still move around

freely, but not at speed and they do have a

bond.

Diffusion

Remember the 2 particles where diffusion can take place.List one practical example of each type of diffusion.

Describe the processes that occur during diffusion.Explain how these differ between gas and liquid diffusion.

Analyse liquid diffusion in different environments.

Lesson ObjectiveInvestigate different types of diffusion, understanding the processes that take place during liquid and gas diffusion.

Expectationsafter video

TRUE OR FALSE

SHOW YOUR GREEN CARD FOR TRUE

SHOW YOUR RED CARD FOR FALSE

Diffusion occurs in the form of liquid and gas, but not in solids.

TRUE OR FALSE

TRUE

Gas diffusion happens quickly because gas particles move quickly and have no bond.

TRUE OR FALSE

TRUE

Liquid diffusion occurs at a slower rate than gas diffusion.

TRUE OR FALSE

TRUE

Diffusion can occur in solids, such as wood and plastics.

TRUE OR FALSE

FALSE

The mixing and spreading of particles in gases and liquids is called diffusion.

TRUE OR FALSE

TRUE

Gas particles move very slowly.

TRUE OR FALSE

FALSE

Smells spread by diffusion of the smelly gas particles.

TRUE OR FALSE

TRUE

Liquid Diffusion Demonstration

Mr Stevens will demonstrate liquid diffusion with potassium manganate.

During this task you must watch carefully, listen and be ready for some questions by

Mr Stevens.Try to answer using key words.

Class Experiment

Students are to diffuse a tea bag in hot and cold water in order to see which one

diffuses the fastest.

Title: Diffusion of a tea bag in different environments

Method Roles

The diagram below shows how the experiment will be set up. P1 – Places a white piece of paper under the

beaker with a cross on it.

P2 – Pour cold water in to a beaker that contains a tea bag.

P3 – Timer (time 3 minutes) and inform the group when time is up.

P4 – Records the data.

P5 – Records the temperature of the water at the start of the experiment.

Safety

• Stand up when carrying out the

experiment.

• Make sure bags are under tables.

• Be extra careful with hot water.

Equipment List

• 2 beakers containing

• 2 tea bags

• Stop watch

• Thermometer

DiffusionThoughts during experiment

Think about what you will write in your conclusionWhat are the reasons for one diffusing quicker than the other?
