Marisol pours water into a large oven-safe glass bowl until it is about one-fourth full. She then places a small, heavy cup inside the glass bowl. The cup is heavy enough that it does not float. She makes sure that no water enters the small cup when she places it in the bowl. She then places the oven-safe bowl with the water and cup on an electric burner. Finally, she turns the burner on to low.
Part A
What will happen to the water in terms of phase changes when Marisol turns on the stove?
Part B
Marisol covers the bowl with plastic wrap and then places ice on top of the plastic wrap. Write a hypothesis predicting how the plastic wrap and ice cubes will affect the water vapor in the large bowl.
Part C
The image shows what happens when Marisol completes her setup.Write down what you observe in the image. Explain the processes that occur in the bowl and result in what you see.
- The picture here is for Part C -
