Polar vs Nonpolar Balloon Activity


Use the same balloons used in Balloon Molecular Geometry Activity but this time determine symmetry, polarity and solubility and then apply knowledge to determine a solvent choice and best gas to collect by water displacement.

Students use models to record:
  1. Symmetrical or Not Symmetrical
  2. Decide Polar or Nonpolar
  3. Predict Soluble or Not Soluble in Water
  4. Draw Lewis Structure
  5. Decide Actual Shape and Hybridization
  6. Link possible compound list to balloon structure
