This can be understood by using the models in lab #2 to connect how the system works together to form one functional bond, cell, tissue, organ, or organism. Using the knowledge that we have gained, we can predict what will happen in future events by studying the evidence of atoms and atoms, as well as looking into patterns that chemistry experiments might portray. Experiment 3 was a great example of where we had to use stoichiometry to see the number of reactants that would be created in a specific reaction.…

    I remember this moment when I was around 6 years old, I went to Florida with my family and was staying at my grandmother’s condo.
