  • In this experiment, you can visualize the difference in density between hot and cold water. Using the food coloring and a thermal infrared camera you can really see what is happening at the particulate level.

    ▶️ Hot vs. Cold Water Density Experiment Procedures:
    Step 1: Gather supplies--two glasses of the same size, a hard piece of plastic, and two different colors of food coloring.
    Step 2: Fill one glass with cold water to the brim, so the water is bubbling over the top of the glass.
    Step 3: Fill the second glass with hot water to the brim as well.
    Step 4: Stir in food coloring to the cold water. Mix well. I used blue for the cold water.
    Step 5: Stir in a different food coloring to the hot water. Mix well. I used red for the hot water.
    Step 6: Place the thin, flat plastic on top of the hot water glass so you can flip it upside down without spilling the water.
    Step 7: Carefully turn the hot water glass upside down, holding the plastic in place, and set it directly on top of the cold water glass. Make sure the rims line up all the way around.
    Step 8: Carefully remove the plastic from between the two glasses to allow the water to mix, and observe.
    ▶️ How the hot vs. cold water density experiment works:
    You'll notice that the hot and cold water don't mix after the plastic piece is removed, with hot water staying on top and cold water staying on the bottom. That's because the density of the cold water has particles packed a little closer together than the hot water, and gravity is pulling them down now. it's time to repeat the experiment only this time we're going to reverse it so go ahead and fill up your cups with hot water and cold water again and then use the food coloring to make the hot water red and the cold water blue
    Try reversing the experiment with the cold water on top instead, and you'll see the cold water and hot water start mixing quickly. This is because the higher density cold water starts falling down through the lower density hot water. The temperature of the hot water stays hot and the temperature of the cold water stays cold.

    Crazy story but true. I’ve dreamed and pondered about this exact experiment for years but never actually looked it up to see if someone did it. I found this within 5 minutes of searching. What a great experiment! Thank you for the fantastic visuals and thermal views. Thank you for posting this.

    Why do you put only 1 drop of blue color and multiple drops of red color? Just curious if it is on purpose or just by chance.

    • @BeardedScienceGuy
      @BeardedScienceGuy  5 лет назад +13

      The blue is really dark or the red is really light if you use the same amount.

    Question my friend: They say heat desires to move toward the cold, right? If so, in the first test, do you think the heat or hot water desired to move toward the cold, but was prevented due to the density factor of the cold water underneath being more dense? What about in the second test? Did the heat or hot water desiring to move toward the cold water above play a factor? I understand the density part, but it would seem that the heat or hot water would be a factor in the movement of water from one to the other, right?

    • @snake4eva
      @snake4eva 3 года назад

      This is the exact same question i would like answered. The video seems to violate the second law of thermodynamics. Because even if the colors don't mix due to the densities the temperatures need to reach equilibrium to not violate the laws of thermodynamics. What seems to be happening is magical, and I don't believe in magic.

    • @DavidDouthett
      @DavidDouthett 3 года назад +1

      I think the density is the determining factor because it affects the surface area of interaction between the hot and cold. In the first experiment, the cold water is denser, so the hot water can't fall into it. Consequently, the only region where the hot and cold can mix is the plane of contact between the two. Compared to the volume of each glass, this is a very small percentage. In the second experiment, since the hot water is less dense, the cold water can fall into it and the two sample mix completely, so the region of mixing is equal to the volume of the two glasses, very much more than in the first case. Given enough time, the first experiment would eventually see the heat transfer from hot to cold, but it would also have the effects of the hot glass losing heat through the sides of the glass to the environment and heat from the environment entering the cold glass. Eventually the two glasses would reach a point where the density was close enough that mixing could begin, I would think, and ultimately the whole system would reach equilibrium with the surrounding environment.

    How much salt would you need to add to the hot water to make it denser than the cold. I want to show my niece that it is not Heat that rises. It is less dense liquids rise and hot water is usually less dense but not always.

    • @BeardedScienceGuy
      @BeardedScienceGuy  5 лет назад +1

      I was pondering the same thing earlier. I bet the hot water would stay on the bottom if you saturate it with salt. You could also use hot water and cold oil and the oil should still be less dense.

    • @ecospider5
      @ecospider5 5 лет назад

      Cold oil. Obvious after you say it but I had not thought about that. Brilliant. Thank you.

  • @snake4eva
    @snake4eva 3 года назад +1

    I understand why the colors don't mix in the case of hot water atop cold water, due to the difference in densities. However, I'm really puzzled about the temperatures not reaching equilibrium on the thermal camera even after 10 mins? Thermodynamics dictates that heat flows from hot to cold body. Even if no heat was flowing between the hot water and the cold water in the glasses, both glasses would be losing heat to the environment and thus the temperature should drop (hot) or be risen (cold) in both glasses. Based on thermodynamics the video is not making any sense. Please explain, using thermodynamics equations if possible, what is happening on the thermal camera when hot water is placed on top of cold water. If this were possible then it seems that the second law of thermodynamics would be violated.

    • @Ok-kn9pz
      @Ok-kn9pz 2 года назад

      I cannot use the thermodynamics equations, but I assume that the reason why the temperatures not reaching equilibrium is because of the fact that the youtuber said to make sure to align the cups together accurately. When the cups are aligned perfectly, no outside materials can have contact with the test subject. So then, when there are no outside effects that cool down, it will stay the same. Or it can be something else like density affects more to the test subject rather than the thermodynamics.

      Once the temperature of both is the same the density will no longer be different and the random particle movement will cause them to mix.
