What the week actually is

Chemistry week is where the ratio work from math class finally has a point. Molarity, concentration, reaction rate — every one of them is a proportion problem wearing a lab coat, and the connection lands better here than in any classroom.

Day by day

  1. Concentration as a ratio problem
  2. Reaction rate, measured
  3. Design a test for an unknown
  4. Run it, defend the conclusion
  5. Showcase: present the method
