Che-Mystery!

Whats the difference between an acid and a base? Are they dangerous? What's a chemical reaction? In this series of classes, students will learn to use lab gear, measure pH, and speed up and slow down reactions. A different chemistry topic and cool take-home each day.


Chem in a Flash

Take a trip through Chemical Reactions and learn how to control them.  Experiment with oxidation, crystalization, quick-acting reactions such as precipitation and acid-base reactions, test limiting reagents, and a color-changing electrolysis demonstration.  Take-Home Action Flask kit

 

Dry Ice Capades

Probe the shifting states of matter; observe melted and resolidified metal, use Dry Ice to explore properties of matter at extreme temperatures; test volumetric differences between solids and gases.  Take-Home: Thermo-Color Cup

 

Junior Reactors

Demonstration of physical and chemical reactions followed by hands-on experiments to understand the size of atoms, a creative molecular session, explore how atoms join together and how molecules react.  Take-Home Atomic Coins


Lab works

Students learn to manipulate an assortment of lab equipment through hands-on activities. They will learn to proper lab techniques including liquids transfer and how to swirl with an Erlenmeyer flask.  Take-Home Graduated Gear kit

 

PH Phactor

Students explore the crazy chemistry of acids and bases and pH Phactors hydrogen and hydroxide. Apply the Phantastic pH test to common household chemicals.  Bring a mystery liquid to a perfect pH  balance. The Phestival ends with a Stopper-Popper reaction!  Take-Home: Reaction Tube
