Fizzy Lemonade equilibrium

I measured and recorded the change in pressure using the @pascoscientific Chemistry sensor of some lemonade poured into a sealed flask. Initially, the pressure increased rapidly, but then as the pressure increased, less CO2 came out of the solution, creating a dynamic equilibrium.

 

Maths and Physics

 Maths and Physics. Should one be advised to take one with the other? The students without Physics struggle with Mechanics, and the Physics struggle without solid Maths knowledge - for them, maybe A-level Further Maths would help.

Measuring Friction

 A Newton spring meter measured the force of friction exerted by some books on a table. It shows how hard someone has to push to overcome friction—unbalanced forces.

Digestive system

 Digestive system revision. A quick look at the woolly digestive system and most of the facts it came back. Good visual aids, especially those that can be touched, help with learning.

Away from Teaching

 It looks like a good day to get on with some reorganisation of the classroom as I can't do much sailing today and the classroom certainly needs a tidy.

Memory

 Different types of memory from 1K chips to 32Gb RAM Modules and much in between. The students learnt how they work and everything about RAM and ROM.

Order of Reactivity

Order of reactivity of metals - this was a tough one for the students because they had to devise their own experiments; with a lot of help, they achieved a result. Next time they have to compare metals and their sulfates prediction and proof.
