Question
The physical properties of water make it a very unusual substance and determine many of the properties of the oceans. Here are two simple experiments that can help us investigate how things dissolve in water and how water freezes.
Experiment
Materials:
A glass (with a smooth even rim), plate, spoon, water, confectioners (powdered) sugar
Procedure:
1. Fill the glass with water and place it on the plate.
2. Using the spoon, gently add water to the glass until the water begins to spill over the edge. At this point the water should be bulging above the rim of the glass.
3. Dry the spoon and slowly add scoops of confectioners sugar to the water.
4. Count how many scoops of sugar it takes to make the water overflow.
Discussion:
Report your results. Discuss what happened and give scientific explanations for what you observed. Based on what you know about the characteristics of water try to explain why water bulges above the rim of the glass, and why you can add a solid substance (the sugar) to the water without causing the water to overflow. How does this relate to the study of oceans?
Summary
This question belongs to ocean science and discusses about physical properties of oceans.

After I moved to Australia to study Computer Science and Engineering, I found out that the things are quite different than what it used to be in the Indian universities. The course structure is much more practical oriented and thus the numbers of assignments are also more. I was clueless and was struggling to cope when I came across HwA. Thanks to them I got through my first two semesters with good grades and that boosted my confidence. Now I am pursuing my post-graduation from a Queensland based reputed technology university and still taking help from HwA.
The opportunity to talk to your online network security tutor anytime during the day is a great help. It is extremely helpful when you want to clarify any point in your assignment. The tutors are extremely professional and they have great knowledge on practically any topic under the sun in IT security. Would definitely recommend to all.
The care and patience with which the online Labor Economics expert at HwA guided me through the assignment topic was simply amazing. She was always ready with the solutions to my queries and incorporated any suggestions that I made into the Labor Economics Assignment essay. It was just the guidance I needed to write my Labor economics assignment.
I often used to get baffled by the Theory X and Theory Y of management strategies when my friend told me to seek help from HwA. It was a great advice, I must say, because it helped me to get good grades and clear my concepts.
My professor gave an assignment where I had to make a marketing plan for a daily use product in the markets of Hastings, New Zealand. I was unsure whether anyone in the internet will be able to guide me with such accurate details. However, to my surprise I found out that HwA not only have separate Kiwi assignment helpers but there are marketing assignment experts also. I definitely got good grades and I am very happy with my results.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
