Electrolysis

This week's experiment was electrolysis.  I went over to the Parra's house and we split water into oxygen and hydrogen.  To speed up the process we added salt to the water, so we ended up splitting it into sodium and chloride as well.   By the end of the experiment, the water that remained was green/blue and had a distinct smell like a swimming pool.

 

What a joy to see Oljer and his three daughters learning together.  This family has really been growing and has caught the vision of homeschooling.  The last time I was went over to their house, I made soap with the mom and daughters.  Please pray that the Lord would continue to encourage them and give them grace to continue on.
