How do different liquids absorb heat?
Materials
Water
Salt water
Olive oil
Liquid soap
Jars (however many liquids you have)
Digital hot plate
Digital thermometer
Microwave
Stopwatch
Labeling tape
Marker
Any other liquid you want to test
Preparation
A night before you do your heat testing, measure a ½-cup of liquid into each jar and label it accordingly. You should have 2 jars for each liquid. Set the jars aside so they will all be the same temperature when you test them the next day.
