Investigation question

Which material will work best at insulating Guzzlers hot chocolate?

Before I carry out this investigation, I think the cup wrapped in tinfoil will be the best insulator, then the cup wrapped with paper and finally the cup with noting around it. 

What I predict

-3 equal sized cups 

-Tinfoil

-Paper

-Thermometer

-Stopwatch

-Hot water

-Recording sheet

Materials I will need

Step 1:Wrap one cup in tinfoil, one cup in paper and leave one cup to act as the control.

Step 2:Fill each cup with the same amount of hot water.

Step 3:Start a stopwatch. 

step 4:Record the temperature of each cup every 30 seconds for 2 minutes.

What I need to do 

           The Investigation 

Tinfoil

Control

Paper

My results 

             My Findings

After carrying out this investigation, The cup covered with tinfoil stayed warmer the longest. The cup covered with paper and the control cup cooled down almost at the same rate, with the cup covered with paper being a little warmer by 1 degree.

Thank you!

Here you go!

             Conclusion 

In conclusion I believe that Guzzler's best option is to use Tinfoil as an insulator for his Hot chocolate as it will keep it the warmest!
