Assignment to turn in
Your job is to find another chemical in your everyday world that is also made of atoms, just like table salt is NaCl. Please find out what atoms make up your chemical by asking on the internet "what atoms are in ....." and inserting your chemical name into the sentence. Find a picture of the atoms in your chemical on the internet, copy a picture of your chemical and also of the atoms inside it and write a description of your chemical into a document and share it with me. Here is a list of some common chemicals that you could use if you are struggling to think of any, but please think of some of your own if you can.Water Wood
Bleach Steel
Soap Plastic
