Leaky Cup Phenomenon - Discrepant Event in Chemistry

 This video will really get your kids thinking (bonus points in you do this live for your classes).  I always love to see what the explanations are that the students come up with.  


This video is a fun way to introduce your students to the concept of intermolecular forces.  Afterward, you can explain how this was done.  I am not going to give it away here, but you can find the solution here. 

If you are looking for a tie in to the NGSS it fits with Science Practice: Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions, HS-ESS2-5 Water, and HS-PS1 Matter and Its Interactions
