• Transfer of heat through thermal energy

Is there a reason to how/why each chocolate melted?

• Yes

• No

What is the reasoning as to how the chocolate melted? 

• The chocolate closest to the flame on the pipe melted the quickest because it takes less time to transfer the heat.

• The chocolate furthest away to the flame on the pipe melted the quickest because it takes more time to transfer the heat

• The chocolate in the middle melted the slowest because heat transfers from the opposite sides and meets in the middle therefore it takes the longest

Make an observation, what is happening to the chocolate?

• The chocolate on the smaller bar is melting quicker

• The chocolate on the larger bar is melting quicker

• Both pieces of chocolate are melting at the same pace

Why/how does the thinner rod heat up faster making the chocolate melt quicker?

• The atoms are closer together 

• The atoms are more spread out

• The atoms don't matter, it is what it is
