Solvation is one of those very hard topics to understand. We have been using the Snatoms to try and make solvation slightly easier to follow. We can see the idea behind size and how the different molecules can bind to one another. We can show how the shape of the molecules makes a difference. We ...

At over 2m tall this tube filled with water can help work out the terminal velocity of an object as it sinks through water. Using a #PASCO rotary sensory, we dropped a brass weight ( 25g) attached to a piece of string. As the ball fall it turned the motion sensor which in turn recorded the distan...

Looking at how plants take up water is an essential experiment in Biology. A small piece of plant in this case some water cress is inserted into a tube at the top making a water tight seal. The potometer shown here allows an air bubble to be brought into the apparatus, using a syringe, so that th...

Three allotropes of Carbon, Diamond, Graphite and Buckminster Fullerene are known. There is another, a one slice of graphite (graphene) that is rolled into a tube to make a carbon nanotube called a carbon fibre. This model was created by me since a manufactured model didn't exist. I made a sheet...
