PRESENTATION OUTLINE

Pop can Implosion

Jayda Morales

1. The hot can collapsed in on itself when placed in the bowl of ice water.

2. When the water is heated to a boil the pressure builds up making the metal weak. When its placed in cold water quickly upside down the can implodes.

3. The water in the can turns to steam that fills the can and replaces the air with steam. When you place the can to the top of the cold water the steam condensed into water very quickly, and the can is left with low pressure inside and therefore implodes.

4. The kinetic molecular theory proposes that a gas is composed of a large number of particles in rapid motion. Each particle occasionally collides with a wall of the can. As a result of that collision, the particle exerts a force on the wall making it weaken.

5. When you stand the can upright and do the experiment the can would just cool down and would't implode because the steam isn't hitting the liquid first.

6. This is a change in pressure that doesn't make the can implode. The volume isn't explosed to the water the right way to make the can implode.
