Step 1: Lab Report

Drag the metals into the correct order based on your table data!
🔥 Expands MOST ⬆️

POWER SUPPLY Contact Alarm 🔥

Step 3: AC Thermostat Challenge

A thermostat uses a gap to maintain a temperature! Predict how this strip will bend when the room gets hot.
When the AC turns on, notice how it cools all the way down to 23°C to break the circuit again!
