Activity 1: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 6 min

Lab Fever (Mid)

In this simulation game, you are a scientist investigating how liquids are heated. You will complete three mini-experiments during the game. After each expirement, there will be a short quiz to test you on what you have learned. Your investigation explores the rate of heating different volumes of the same liquid, the rate of heating the same volume of different liquids, and the effect of heating a liquid on molecular vibration.
