Covalent and Ionic Bonding

This is a worksheet on types of bonding.  An ionic bond is when a metal and a nonmetal bond, and a covalent is when two nonmetals bond.

Conductivity Lab

Preview of your graph

    In this lab we were measuring the conductivity of solutions, that we created.  To do this we had to use water that had been filtered until it had no charge that would run through it.  Then we would mix a certain substance into the water and use the LED tester to see how high of a charge it created.  The reason that most of the solutions had a pretty high conductivity, is that I tried to pick out the most reactive solutions. The graph above shows the different types of solutions that we used and how much conductivity it showed.
