Chemistry; Tuesday, Period One [ 01/18 ].
Sure, Kūkaku knew she could get a generator for her classroom. Hell, she could be the generator for her classroom if she wanted, but then why would she want to deprive her poor little students of a practical lesson, hmmm?
At least there were lights, if nothing else. They were in the form of carefully protected lanterns that the twins had painstakingly hung up from the ceiling before class that morning, and Kūkaku might has used a little bit of her talents to make sure they were bright enough to work by. Heat, on the other hand, was going to be a different story.
"Morning!" Kūkaku had on her cloak but, besides that, seemed relatively unaffected by the chilly classroom. "So some of you may have noticed a little power outage from the snow we got. Personally, I think we're all jus' lucky the extreme change in temperatures didn't cause the world to explore or nothin'. I know your reading chapters for this week were on the states of matter and transitions between them, but I think today we're going to do something a little more thematic.
"Simply put, we're skippin' the lecture right now and doin' the experiment first. We're going to make some energy, using chemical energy and the heat of combustion. Obviously, any of the dangerous elements are out of our reach, but you've got a lot of the basic ones at your disposal, as well as a few basic laboratory tools. If ya want, ya can be boring and make fire, but remember, fire needs lots of fuel to burn and I'm not lettin' you scorch half the lab. Or, you can try to get a little more creative and see what other ways you can make energy at your station for you and your partner. Pretty simple, right? But here's the catch. When you're done, you get to explain to us all what you did, what chemical reactions were involved, and blah blah blah. It could be worse. I coulda made it be a written report."
"Before we start, any question about the reading material for the week? Or any questions about this week? If not, let's get started. The longer you wait, the colder your get, but I don't think too many of you will have a problem coming up with something for this one."
