Aim Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Continued on the next page Conductors, Bonding and Guitar Hero To test whether a range of materials are conductors or insulators and link the observations to bonding. Materials 10 or 5 cent coins Chocolate bud Glucose Hand sanitiser margarine Toothpaste Alfoil Paper guitar MaKey MaKey Summarise your findings using a mind map Control Set Up Connect MaKey MaKey to the computer as stated in the instructions. Set up the paper guitar with ten or five cent coins connected to the ASDFG controllers on the MaKey MaKey. Open http://makeymakey.com/hero/ Play Guitar Hero. Created by Adele Hudson, 2014
Testing Materials Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Virtual Learning Hub Conductors, Bonding and Guitar Hero 1. 2. Keep one ten cent coin on the G connector as a control. Place plastic counters on all the other connects and add four materials from the list above. Test whether the materials are conductors or insulators by playing Guitar Hero. Write your observations in the table below. 3. 4. Type of intramolecular bonding Type of intermolecular bonding Conductor or Insulator Chocolate bud Glucose Hand sanitiser Margarine Toothpaste Alfoil Summarise your findings using a mind map 5. Provide an explanation in terms of bonding for why some of the materials act as conductors. Created by Adele Hudson, 2014
Bridge Building, Bongos and Bonding Challenge Build a bridge that is a minimum of 20 cm long and 5 cm high and can conduct electricity using only limited materials. Materials 5 x Wooden paddle pop sticks 4 x plastic straws Paper towel (20 cm) 2 x plastic pegs 4 x rubber bands Water Computer MaKey MaKey Summarise your findings using a mind map Please note that not all the materials need to be used. Test To test the bridge you must be able to connect one end to the MaKey MaKey controller and touch the other end to play the Bongos - http://makeymakey.com/bongos/ Continued on the next page Created by Adele Hudson, 2014
Continued.. Bridge Building, Bongos and Bonding Explain Complete the table below, providing an explanation of the intramolecular and intermolecular bonding present for each of the materials listed. State whether each of the materials are conductors or insulators. Type of Intramolecular bonding Types of Intermolecular bonding Conductor or insulator Material Wooden paddle pop stick (assume made of cellulose) Plastic straw Summarise your findings using a mind map Paper towel (assume made of cellulose) Plastic peg Water Provide an explanation for why a material is a conductor.
