Chemistry Fun Activity 1

Hello!As we discussed earlier,graphite is a non-metal which is a good conductor of electricity.Now we will use this property to make a circuit with graphite as a medium.Take a look at the instructions to make your circuit.


Materials you need:
Some wire,A bulb,Battery,2 pencils sharpened at both ends,some cello tape and scissors.

Method

1. Take 2  pieces of wire and cut them into two halves each so that you have four reasonably long pieces of wire
2. Connect two pieces of wire two the Battery and the other two pieces to the bulb.
3. Now you will have two separate halves of the circuit,one with the bulb and one with the battery.
4. Now connect the two halves of the circuit with the pencils MAKING SURE THAT THE WIRE TOUCHES THE LEAD OF THE PENCIL.
5. Now your circuit is ready.
