This Sugar and Salt Solutions interactive also includes:
Ionic bonds form from electrostatic energy, allowing for higher conductivity than those seen in covalent bonds. In the simulation, learners add sugar and salt to water and see the effects on concentration and conductivity of their solution. On the micro tab, they see how these compounds dissolve and, on the water tab, they see its role in these solutions.
