What is Matariki

In Aotearoa/New Zealand, the star cluster is known as Matariki. This name is a truncated version of the saying “Ngā Mata o te Ariki Tāwhirimātea” meaning “the eye of the god Tāwhirimātea” - and there's a growing trend to celebrate its pre-dawn rising at this time of the southern winter as the Māori New Year.

Particle Theory of Matter - Convection

When particles are heated the distance between the particles increases. This means that objects will expand. When liquids or gases expand they become less dense. A gas or liquid which is will dense will rise through a more dense gas or liquid. This is the explanation for the well-known tendency of hot fluids to rise and cold fluids to sink. Scientists call this process convection.

Aim: To observe convection in a liquid.

Equipment: 200 mL beaker, water, tweezers, a crystal of potassium permanganate, a drinking leave it just to one side of the Busen burner.

Method:1. Set up a Busen burner on a heatproof mat.Put the gauze mat on the tripod but minutes.
2. Fill a 200 mL beaker with 150 mL cold water.

3. Place the beaker on top of the tripod and gauze and allow it to settle for a few minutes.

4. Carefully insert a drinking straw down one side of the beaker, ensuring the straw is touching the bottom of the beaker. Be careful as you do not want to disturb the water too much.

5. Using tweezers, drop a crystal of potassium permanganate down the inside of the straw.Wait for the crystal to settle on the bottom of the beaker.

6, Very gently, so to not disturb the water, remove the straw.

7. Light the Busen and slide it under the tripod so that you are only heating the outside of the beaker where the crystal is.Observe.

Conduction

Conduction is a term used to describe the flow of heat through an. Objects that are good at conducting heat are called thermal conductors. Metals are thermal conductors, but plastics, fur wool, and gases are usually poor thermal conductors. Poor thermal conductors are called thermal insulators.

Aim: To observe conduction along a metal rod.

Equipment: A metal rod, retort stand and clamp, bunsen burner, petroleum jelly, 5-10 drawing pins, a stopwatch.

Method 1.Set up and light a Busen burner.
2. Smear a small amount of petroleum jelly on to the head of each drawing pins, a stopwatch.
3.Attach the drawing pins at even intervals along the length of the metal rod.
4.Clamp one end of the metal rod to a retort stand.
5.Position the retort stand so the unclamped end of a metal rod is in the Busen flame and start the stopwatch
6.Record the time it takes for each pin to drop in the table below.

Pin Number            Time to drop (s)
        1                      1 min 13 sec                             
        2                       4min 24 sec                   
        3                      6 min  25 sec                   
        4                      8 min 24 sec                             
        5                       10 min 31 sec
