Hypothesis

Water

Refrigerator

1. The ice trays were filled with the same volume of water

2. The ice trays were placed in the freezer

3. The ice trays were taken out from the freezer simultaneously

Results

4. 1 ice sample from each ice tray was taken out simultaneously

7. Rate of melting was calculated using the formula:

Table of results

-Measuring spoon not precise

-Only 10ml of water was used

-Difficult to see if the ice have completely melted

surface area(cm^2)/average time taken(s)

6. Steps 3-5 were repeated 4 times. The average melting time of each respective shape was recorded.

Revised

5. The time taken for the ice samples to melt was recorded
