Your task
Is each sentence true or false?
- Lab glass is often borosilicate glass, made with boron. It expands very little when heated, so it copes much better with sudden temperature changes than ordinary window glass.
- Invented guild stories to learn from. Never try fire, hot metal, glass, blades or power tools on your own: crafts like these are learned with a trained adult.
- Every craft came from many people in many places. Nothing about you is collected.
Score
- Craft knowledge — You understood how this craft works.
- Making it well — You put the steps in a sensible order and used the right tools.
- Care for people & planet — You kept people safe and used materials wisely.
In real life
Glass does not react with most chemicals and you can see through it, which is why chemists have used it for centuries.
