Chemical Compound Project
Your assignment is to construct a three dimensional display out of food wrappers,
boxes, bottles, etc. You must identify the name and formula for at least one component
in each product.
Display Requirements:
1. 10 different types of food products must be used.
2. At least one component of each product must be identified by name and
formula.
3. The names and formulas must be written on labels that can easily be seen.
4. The product wrappers should be empty. (NO ANTS!)
Creativity counts. Try to think of some way to display your products that will be
different from everyone else’s. Be Original. It is important that you follow instructions.
Be sure to have 10 products and that they are different. (Ex: only one soft drink can or
only one candy bar wrapper)
