Floating Plate experiment

Floating Plate experiment

WE NEED:

• Toilet paper

• Matches

• Cup of glass

• Plate
First, wet the toilet paper and squeeze out the
water.

Second, put it on the plate.

Third, put 5 matches on the wet toilet paper.

Fourth, light the matches and cover it with a cup of

glass.

Fifth, press the glass for like a minute and lift the
plate.
TRIVIA
The pressure law states that for a constant
volume of gas in a sealed container the
temperature of the gas is directly proportional
to its pressure. This can be easily understood
by visualising the particles of gas in the
container moving with a greater energy when
the temperature is increased. If the
temperature increases, the pressure increases.
If the temperature decreases, the pressure
decreases. As i light the matches inside, the
temperature increases and the pressure
increases causing the high pressure to hold the
plate and lift it.
Hydrogen Bonding Forces
GROUP 5
What is Hydrogen Bonding?
Hydrogen bonds is a type of weak chemical bond. It is
the process of forming hydrogen bonds that are an
attractive intermolecular force’s special class which arises
because of the dipole-dipole interaction between the
hydrogen atom and a highly electronegative atom.

It mainly occurs between an electronegative and a

hydrogen atom. Some of the common electronegative
atoms are fluorine, chlorine, and oxygen.
Types of Hydrogen Bonding
• Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonding
- is mainly formulated between two different types of molecules
of different or same compounds.

• Intramolecular Hydrogen Bonding

-can be described as hydrogen bonding that mainly occurs
within the molecule only. This type of hydrogen bonding takes
place in compounds that have two groups.
Examples of Hydrogen Bonding

• Hydrogen bonding in the hydrogen fluoride

- since fluorine has the highest value of electronegativity, it leads to the
formation of the strongest hydrogen bond.
• Hydrogen bonding in carboxylic acid and alcohols

– Alcohol is referred to as an organic molecule with an -OH group.

Generally, in case any molecule that has a hydrogen atom is either linked to
nitrogen or oxygen directly. Later, hydrogen bonding becomes easier .
• Hydrogen bonding in the ammonia
– It has electronegative atom nitrogen connected to hydrogen
atoms.
 Properties of Hydrogen Bonding

•Volatility
– Since the compounds with hydrogen bonding between several
different molecules possess a higher boiling point, these are
comparatively less volatile.

•Solubility
• – Since hydrogen bonding can take place between alcohol and water
molecules, the alcohol is more soluble in the water.
• Surface and Viscosity tension

– Substances that have hydrogen bonding exist as the associated

molecule. Therefore, their flow is way difficult. However, they have more
viscosity and surface

• Lower ice density as compared to water

– When talking about the solid ice, hydrogen bonding leads to the
cage-like structure. However, every water molecule is closely linked to the
four water molecules. Since the molecules are in their liquid state, they are
not packed closely. As the ice melts, the case-like structure also begins to
melt, and all the molecules come closer to one another. As a result, even if
the water mass is the same, the density increases and volume decreases.
