Chemistry!

Ok, so I've been taking chemistry at WEC and its been really fun! Its even more fun when you have an awesome teacher! Thanks Mrs. Peretic!
Ok, so these are called wells, and we put different compounds in them and tested them to see if they conducted electricity...yeah fun! The top six are filled, but you can basically only see the blue one.
And then Mrs. Peretic was teaching us this nifty method of learning the periodic table. We got to say its the united states!


This is an experement we did the first week to see how electricity works, I think.
And yes it worked...thats what the bubbles are.
And of course what happens when metal sits in water? It rusts and thats what happened with this wire.
A better picture of the rust
My wonderful bf and lab partner, bethany.
another one of my bf and lab partners, but shes also the mad scientist...lol. She tries to overdo things...but she poured sooo much baking soda into the vinegar that it exploded on to the table and she had to clean it up...:P
another one of our experements...not really sure what we were trying to do but it was really cool!

And this was light salt mixed with water and it like freezes. Its strange but awesome!

And so thats how the first uh...5 weeks have been. And I won't be there this friday, so bethany will have to send me some pictures. Right bethany?
