Question 140341 • 26/27 EARTH & SPACE SCIENCE A

How is the behavior of food coloring in the cool and heated water different? What caused the differences in their behavior?

Answer

Answer:

The food coloring in cool water stayed at the bottom. In heated water, it rose to the top, moved to the sides, and then sank. Heating and cooling changed the water’s density: warmer, less dense water rose, while cooler, denser water sank, creating convection currents.
