OBJECTIVE/S:
Materials Needed:
Procedure:
1. Half-fill the three containers with equal amount of cold water. Arrange them next
to one another as shown in Figure 1 below.
Try to recall your lesson on Heat Transfer in Grade 7 and answer the following
questions:
Q1. What actually transferred when you dipped your finger into the water? In what Heat. From the
direction did it transfer? finger to the water
(higher
temperature to
lower
temperature)
3. Measure with a thermometer the temperature of the water in each container. Answer may vary
Record your measurements in Table 1 below. (Note: The initial temperature of the depending on the
water in each container should be the same as they come from the same source.) temperature of
the actual sample
of water.
Q3. How close is your estimated value to the measured temperature of the water? Answer may vary
4. Add the same amount of hot water to container 1, tap water to container 2 and
the same cold water to container 3. Leave the containers for a while.
5. Dip your fingers again, this time into the three containers. Make sure that you do
not dip the same finger into the containers.
Q4. Which container feels ‘hottest’? Which container feels ‘coolest’? Container 1,
Container 3
Q6. In which container(s) is heat transfer taking place? What evidence best Container 1 & 2.
supports your answer? Within this container, which absorbs heat? Which gives off The measured
heat? change in
temperature of
the container after
adding water of
different
temperatures.
Container 1&2.
None
Q7. In which container was there the greatest amount of heat transferred? What is Container 1. It
the basis of your answer? has the highest
measured value
of change in
temperature.
Q8. How are the amount of heat transferred and the change in temperature of The higher the
water related? change in
temperature, the
greater the
amount of heat
transferred.
EXPLAIN (15 minutes)
Processing based from students output Heat transfer
occurs when
there is a
difference in
temperature
between two
objects. The
higher the change
in temperature the
greater the
amount of heat
transfer.
ELABORATE/EXTEND (10 minutes)
Illustrate what will happen to the particles of water when: Students will draw
a. It absorbs heat two figures
b. It releases heat showing particles
that are initially
closer prior to the
absorption of heat
and particles that
are farther before
heat is release.
EVALUATION (7 minutes)
A. Determine the statement whether HEAT or TEMPERATURE
1. It is a measure of the average KE of the particles of an object.
2. It is an energy in transit and it is not contained in an object.
3. It refers to the measure of thermal energy transferred.

4. It can be measured directly using thermometer.
5. It is dependent on the mass and volume of the object.
B. Explain what happens to the thermal energy of your body when you get outside
an air conditioned room.
