Properties of Acids and Bases Experiment Kit

SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS / PROCESSES

• Study, test and observe the characteristic properties of acids and bases
• Prepare, collect and test hydrogen safety
• Prepare, collect and test carbon dioxide safely
• Observe the effects of acids and bases on indicator dyes
• Measure the concentration of acids by titration of an unknown
• Perform a neutralization experiment between and acid and a base to form a salt

This Applied Science Concepts Kit provides a completely safe and convenient method for students to study, test and observe the characteristic properties of acids and bases. Students perform a total of seven different activities:

• Reacting metal with acids and producing hydrogen in safe quantities
• Collecting and safely testing hydrogen
• Reacting carbonates with acids and producing carbon dioxide
• Collecting and testing carbon dioxide
• Observing the effects of acids and bases on indicator dyes
• Measuring the concentration of acids by titration of an unknown
• Performing a neutralization experiment

Activities incorporate the LAB-AIDS ® CHEMPLATE ® This unique lab tool eliminates the need for glassware and provides a semi-micro environment in any classroom. This kit is complete for 50 students.
