Honors Chemistry got competitive in our Stoichiometry Olympics this week! Students chose teams of 4 or 5 to partake in a series of three events: Trashketball, A Balancing Act, and the Stoichiometry Relay.
In A Balancing Act, teams raced to balance a chemical equation and then cross a series of "balance beams" to earn points. In the Stoichiometry Relay, teams completed a relay around the chemistry building before solving a stoichiometry problem related to determining the amount of moles, mass, volume, or number of particles in a reaction. At the end of the three events, the teams with the most points claimed victory and medals to commemorate their wins.
