Exploring the Effects of Material on Ice Melting Rates Using Magic Melting Blocks

This pre-lab report outlines the objectives and procedures for an experiment using Magic Melting Blocks to compare ice melting rates on different materials. Students will develop lab report writing skills while formulating logical hypotheses. They will practice reading Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and understanding hazard potential symbols. The experiment involves placing ice cubes on wood and metal blocks, observing the melting rates, and ensuring safe handling of materials. This hands-on activity fosters scientific inquiry and critical thinking.

  1. Magic melting blocks lab report Pre-Lab

  2. objectives 1. Understand proper lab report writing skills and formulate logical hypotheses. 2. Practice reading Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and Hazard Potential Symbols.

  3. procedures 1. Obtain a set of Magic Melting Blocks – one made wood, the other made of metal. 2. To set up Magic Melting Blocks, place the plastic ring on each block. 3. Place one cube of ice on each block. 4. Observe the rate at which the ice melts on each block. 5. Discard melted ice cubes in a sink, and dry off both blocks with a paper towel.

  4. Material safety data sheetDry ice • Dry Ice MSDS

  5. Hazard potential symbols

  6. Hypothesis • Educated guess outlining how you think the experiment will turn out • If ______independent variable__ (what you’re doing), then ___dependent variable____ (what you think will happen) because ______ (why do you think that will happen).
