Fizzling — Conditions That Affect Change Catalyst Catwalk

Hi!

I'm Fizzling.

Welcome to Catalyst Catwalk!

Will you help me investigate conditions that affect change?

The Grumblies have mixed up our clues.

Let's check the evidence!

Conditions such as temperature, amount, mixing

and surface area can affect how quickly some changes happen.

The effect depends on the process.

Which factor changes in our trial?

  • A. Every factor at once
  • B. Only the material's name
  • C. Water temperature

The answer is C: Water temperature

A fair comparison changes one chosen factor

while keeping other relevant conditions alike.

Repeated trials make results more useful.

That clue helps us make sense of this place.

A fair comparison changes one chosen factor

while keeping other relevant conditions alike.

Repeated trials make results more useful.

Which should stay equal?

  • A. Change water volume each time
  • B. Material amount and water volume
  • C. Nothing

The answer is B: Material amount and water volume

Our trial uses equal amounts of the same material in

equal water volumes, with warm water in A

and cool water in B.

Temperature is the changed factor.

Catalyst Catwalk is a place name, not a requirement to study catalysts.

Hmm...

how does that connect to our first clue?

Our trial uses equal amounts of the same material in

equal water volumes, with warm water in A

and cool water in B.

Temperature is the changed factor.

Catalyst Catwalk is a place name, not a requirement to study catalysts.

Why repeat trials?

  • A. To check consistency
  • B. To guarantee a preferred answer
  • C. To avoid recording different outcomes

The answer is A: To check consistency

A fair comparison changes one chosen factor

while keeping other relevant conditions alike.

Repeated trials make results more useful.

Nice investigating!
