Expansion and Contraction Lab
 **Problem:**what will happen if you put a ballon on a bottel and put the bottle in the hot and cold water. (?)  **Research:** hot particls expand cold particls contract (Explain what expand and contract mean.)  **Hypothesis:**if you put the bottel in cold water (then) the ballon wount inflat put it in the warm water (then) it will inflate.  **Materials: Safety goggles, Balloon,** **Plastic bottle, Warm water,** **Cold water**  **Procedure:**  1.) Stretch the opening of the balloon over the neck of the bottle. 2.)  Observe the balloon at room temperature. Record observations. <span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 14pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Tahoma; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msofareastfontfamily: Tahoma; msolist: Ignore;">3.) Place the bottle with the ballon in the warm water for about 30 seconds. 4.) Observe the ballon again and record any changes you see in the balloon. <span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 14pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Tahoma; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msofareastfontfamily: Tahoma; msolist: Ignore;">5.) Remove the bottle and balloon from the warm water and quickly place it in the cold water for about 30 seconds (or until it cools). 6.) Observe the ballon and record any changes you see in the ballon. <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; msobidifontsize: 12.0ptmsoBidiFontSize;"> <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; msobidifontsize: 12.0ptmsoBidiFontSize;">**Results:** <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; msobidifontsize: 12.0ptmsoBidiFontSize;"> Use the physical characteristics to describe the balloon.

(Use your notes or past labs to write a correct conclusion.)
