Have you heard of global warming?
Well it has affected the oceans by making it unsuitable for its aquatic inhabitants.
To determine the heat capacity of air, water and saltwater.
Water balloon - will stay intact the longest
Saltwater balloon - the second longest
Air - the least longest
First the materials were organised.
Then each balloon was placed over a flame and timed until it popped.
Average time taken for balloons to pop:
Air balloon - 1.36 seconds
Water balloon - 2.11 seconds
Saltwater balloon - 5.23 seconds
The results from the experiment refuted the hypothesis as they differed from what was expected.
This small experiment can not be compared to scientifically supported research performed by professional scientists.
Water has a much higher heat capacity than air, meaning the oceans can absorb larger amounts of heat energy with only a slight increase in temperature.
