Conclusion

From this experiment , it was evident that the temperature of the water does have an immense affect on the time it takes the Panadol rapid soluble tablets to dissolve . The data that i have collected from my experiment clearly show that the tablets will dissolve the fastest in hot water and the slowest in the cold water . This was seen through the three trials that i had conducted i was also able to reinstate my ideas that the tablet would dissolve the fastest in the hot water . Subsequently i was able to accept my hypothesis which stated '' If the temperature of the water increases , then the Panadol tablet will dissolve faster '' . In addition it was clearly obvious that the normal water was situated in between the cold water and the hot water , meaning that when the tablet was dropped into the normal water it would dissolve faster than when dropped into the cold water , but not as fast as when dropped into the hot water.
The unveilings of my findings was not a huge surprise to me as i did have a hunch that the tablet would dissolve the fastest when dropped into the hot water. Although what did come to a surprise to me was how fast it took the tablet to dissolve in hot water ; the average came to be approximately 40.3 seconds. Which i found to be an exceedingly fast time for a tablet to dissolve.

Final graph of all my results combined ( averages )

  1. How come in the graph it says normal water was slower then cold water, when in your conclusion it says that cold water is slower then normal water?
