Factors affecting the rate of Cooling Purpose The purpose of this investigation is to find the factors affecting the rate cooling. If there are more than two factors that do affect the rate of cooling then are there relationships between them. Prediction In my experiments I am going to use 6 different sized beakers, however I will keep the volume inside the beakers at a constant 50ml. It is likely that when I change the size of the beaker to a larger one then the cooling will take less time. This is because there is more surface area exposed to the surrounding air. It is also likely that if I increase the volume but keep the same size beaker the cooling will take longer. This is because the liquid not exposed to the air will retain its heat for a longer period of time. It is also likely that when the temperature of the...
