Chemical Dominoes Board Game
For this project we were asked to make a chemistry board game that incorporated a synthesis reaction, decomposition reaction, combustion reaction, and lighting an LED. My group and I decided to make our board game prehistoric themed. We had dinosaur game pieces that walked around the game board and set off certain experiments when they landed on spots. The first person to reach the end got to set off the final reaction which was called elephant toothpaste.
I think that this project went really well. My group and I worked together very well together and were able to finish the whole project. We didn't get off to a very quick start since we tried planning out the whole game first, but we started moving along very quickly once we started building. I really enjoyed the project and felt like I learned a lot. I got to see actual chemical reactions rather than just writing the equations. I got to use problem solving skills to help complete our project. I can't wait for our next project.
