Does Heat Affect Crystal Growth?
Overview
Objectives/Goals To determine if heat affects crystal growth. Methods/Materials Pottasium Fericyande Cupric Sulfate 4 petri dishes 4 crystal growing papers 1 cup of water Results My results is that heat does affect crystal growth. When put by a heater it grows faster and larger. Conclusions/Discussion As stated in my hypothesis, I believed that heat would make the crystals grow faster. The experimental data supported my hypothesis, indicating that heat affects crystal growth. I believe this is the case because the heat flow moves atoms and grows faster and larger, while in the cold it doesn't move the atoms as much.
Summary statement
It is to determine if heat affects crystal growth.
