Daily Questions:
Please get a scrap piece of paper from the front table and answer the following questions:
1. Why did "salt water" conduct electricity (turn the light bulb on)? Or rather, what did the salt have to do in order to conduct electricity? (Think about what the parts are in a salt compound...)
2. Why don't substances made purely of molecules conduct electricity?
Agenda:
1. Going over IMF notes
2. Pre-lab questions
3. Cutting out & taping data tables into notebooks
