Description

In this lesson, one of a two-part unit from Illuminations, students learn to read an antifreeze chart to determine the necessary mix of antifreeze and water for protection against various temperatures. Students then numerically analyze a particular cooling system to determine how much fluid to drain in order to get the desired percent concentration of antifreeze. Finally, students set up a system of equations to solve the same system. There are also links to online activity sheets.
