  1. 7) when salts dissolve in water, they form ions, which are charged particles. for example, NaCl forms Na+ and Cl- ions. Since electricity is the flow of charges, the electricity is conducted through the ions. Water without ions will not conduct electricity.



    8) i believe that the homemade will go faster because there where be more ions with the homemade because you can control the amount of salt


    9) of battery power i think. i did not get a chance to look at the box and the specs of the car.
