Teach Engineering: Saltwater Circuit

Curated by ACT

Students build a saltwater circuit, which is an electrical circuit that uses saltwater as part of the circuit. Students investigate the conductivity of saltwater, and develop an understanding of how the amount of salt in a solution impacts how much electrical current flows through the circuit. They learn about one real-world application of a saltwater circuit as a desalination plant tool to test for the removal of salt from ocean water.
