Measure the initial temperature of water. Then collect some fuel in a bottle top. Put it under the test tube and light it. When it stops burning they have to measure the final temperature of water. Repeat this with each fuel and compare the rise in temperature each time. (Observation notes) The teacher went through safety reminders. Students were interested and keen to get started. There was a lot of excitement in group 3 in the front when they burnt diesel and saw bits of carbon and a lot of smoke coming out.
