Today Mr. Finley first checked the homework from last night. Yesterday and today the main topic is about particles moving into open space.

Last night's homework: 1. consider the experiment: You pour 10 ml of salt into 100 ml of water. Today we are working on an experiment that is similar to the one from last night.

Today's experiment: We pour 10 ml of suger into 100 ml of water.
Someone had an idea that the water had more open space than a gas.
Based on that some predictions said: That the water should raise and the suger should dissolve.
Question: did 100 ml of water + 10 ml of suger = 110 ml?
Results: The total volume was not 110 ml. The suger dissolve and it went into the empty space of the water.
