Hope’s Apparatus
Hope’s Apparatus is a classic physics laboratory instrument designed to demonstrate the phenomenon of the anomalous expansion of water. This experiment shows that water exhibits unusual behavior around 4°C, where it reaches maximum density instead of continuously contracting as it cools. The apparatus provides a clear and practical method for students to understand this unique property of water, which has great significance in natural processes like the survival of aquatic life during winter.
Product Description:-
To show the maximum density of water. Sheet iron cylinder mounted on a base and encircled midway along its length by a gallery 63 x 100 mm, height x diameter. Fitted with tubulure to carry thermometers and rubber stoppers. Consists of a sheet metal cylinder, with two tubes in the upper and lower regions for inserting thermometers through rubber stoppers. Mounted on a base and encircled midway by an outer trough for holding a mixture of ice and salt.
To show that water has a maximum density at 4 degrees Celsius. Consists of a sheet metal cylinder with two tubes in the upper and lower regions for inserting thermometers through rubber stoppers. Mounted on a base and encircled midway by an outer trough for holding a mixture of ice and salt. Temperature of the water is measured at the top and bottom of the inner cylindrical vessel over a period as the water-cools.
Features:-
- Durable and easy-to-use laboratory design.
- Equipped with accurate thermometers for precise measurement.
- Suitable for both demonstrations and practical student experiments.
- Essential equipment for physics and physical science laboratories.
