Gretchen wants to run a test to discover whether glass, copper, wood, or plastic conduct electricity. She sets up a circuit conn
ecting a battery to a light bulb, with a small gap she will use to test the conductivity of the different substances. One at a time, she connects the circuit with the chosen test material, and records whether or not the light bulb comes on. The variables in this experiment are
Remembering the periodic table, Fe is iron and O is oxygen. The elements that combine to create rust are iron and oxygen, with the chemical compound being (Iron)2(Oxygen)3.
