    relationship between surface area : volume ratio and heat loss. INTRODUCTION: The aim of this experiment is to investigate and find the relationship between heat loss (of water) and surface area to volume ratio of animals. To investigate this‚ we are going to use three flasks of different volume (as the equivalent the animals) and thus different surface areas filled with water. BACKGROUND: Surface Area : Volume Ratios We will be using the following formula for calculating SA:Vol ratios: SA : Vol Vol

    Math: Task 5: Surface Area of Cubes Introducing Surface Area For a fifth or sixth grade class to understand the concept surface area in relation to a cube they need to understand what a cube is first. They will learn that a cube is a special type of rectangular solid. The length‚ width‚ and height of a cube are exactly the same. After explaining what a cube is they will need to understand what it means to find the surface area. The surface area is not the same as finding the volume of a cube. The

    indicator that would change from green to pink when exposed to HCl. To prepare the agar blocks‚ I used knife and ruler to acquire 5 agar blocks with equal dimensions of 3.0cm by 1.0cm by 0.5cm. Then I prepared 5 different concentrations of HCl with equal volume of 5cm^3 in test tubes‚ which were 0.0M. 0.2M‚ 0.4M‚ 0.6M‚ 0.8M and finally 1.0M of HCl. Then‚ I placed the agar blocks into respective test tubes‚ measuring the time taken for the agar blocks to turn from green to completely pink. This was repeated

    find out if surface area affects reaction rate‚ and this experiment proved that surface area in fact does affect reaction rate. My experiment used a berocca tablet that was either cut into sections or left whole‚ the smaller fractions had a larger surface area as there was more area to cover‚ the pieces were then put into water to see what sized tablet reacted to the water the fastest. My hypothesis was supported as it was proven that the smaller pieces which had a larger surface area were much quicker
