Cleaning with Dirt
Source Institutions
Learners build a filter from old soda bottles and dirt. They create polluted water, and pour it through their filter to clean it.
Chromatography Can Separate!
Source Institutions
In this chemistry activity, learners use thin layer chromatography to determine the molecular composition of different markers.
Digit's Cyber-Dough
Source Institutions
In this fun hands-on activity, learners whip up a batch of cyber-dough (play dough) using math for measurements.
Separating with Chromatography
Source Institutions
In this experiment, learners separate different types of molecules in marker inks (using a technique called "thin layer chromatography").
Pneumatic Trough
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a "pneumatic trough," a laboratory apparatus used for collecting pure gas samples over water.
Kool Colors
Source Institutions
Learners investigate how temperature affects the rate of chemical reactions by observing how steel wool reacts with various types of Kool-Aid solutions at different temperatures.
Pollution Diffusion
Source Institutions
Learners design their own experiment to investigate how pollution diffuses through ground material.
Coral and Chemistry
Source Institutions
In this experiment, learners will explore whether increased carbon dioxide makes our oceans more basic or more acidic.
Of Cabbages and Kings
Source Institutions
This lesson gives full instructions for making cabbage juice indicator, a procedure sheet for learners to record observations as they use the indicator to test materials, and extension activities to d
Disappearing Colors
Source Institutions
In this challenge, learners figure out how to make a juice stain disappear.
Density Rainbow
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners mix several sugar solutions to investigate the property of density. Each sugar solution has a different density and color of the rainbow.
Recycling Paper
Source Institutions
In this crafty chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make their own paper from used paper they may have otherwise thrown away.
Plaster Casts
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners combine two substances (plaster of Paris and water) to make a cast of an object's imprint in clay.
