Journal Entry:

 If you place an open perfume bottle and a piece of paper in a sunny window, the aroma of the perfume will soon fill the air, but you will not smell the paper at all. Explain what is going on. What is the heat from the sun doing to the perfume to increase the smell?

Learning Intentions

• We will learn how to explain the connections between smell and polarity, molecular size, phase and type of bonding.

• We will learn how to predict if a molecule will have a smell based on its structure composition, and phase.

Closing Task:

 You can determine the smell of a compound by its name, structure and phase.
