Extension 2: Why is it that water molecules sticks together?
For the assessment 2/13/2015 - Extra Credit! Be able to identify how polarity can affect how well different molecules "stick" together. Run the simulation below and identify the difference between Low Polarity and High Polarity based molecules.
Use the interactive simulation and share your thoughts. Additional information is on Schoology.
The link to the following simulation to utilize with today's lesson Atomic Models Introduction - Plum Pudding Model vs. Rutherford Atomic Model. Remember to follow the directions given to you (if using iPad use HTML5 / Schoology Version or use Puffin web browser on your home screen):
