Currently Working: Testing Conductivity
Source Institutions
Visitors test solutions of water, sugar, salt, and hydrochloric acid and the solids salt and sugar. They clip leads from the hand generator to wires immersed in each substance.
Electroplating
Source Institutions
In this electrochemistry activity, learners will explore two examples of electroplating.
Water Clean-up
Source Institutions
This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Water Clean-up Activity) about the use of reduction agents to decontaminate ground water.
Atoms and Matter (3-6)
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build models of atoms and molecules, then consider their role in different phases of matter, density, and mixtures and solutions.
Formulas Poker
Source Institutions
In this adapted version of poker, learners practice writing chemical formulas by playing this chemistry card game.
Red, White and Blue I Demonstration
Source Institutions
In this chemistry demonstration, learners observe a chemical reaction that produces a colorful effect.
Currently Working
Source Institutions
Learners test solutions of water, sugar, salt, and hydrochloric acid for electrical conductivity. They immerse leads from a lighting device (a battery pack connected to an LED) into each solution.
Trading Places
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover that atoms and ions of different metals will change places.
Charge and Carry
Source Institutions
In this activity about electricity, learners produce a spark that they can feel, see, and hear. Learners rub a Styrofoam plate with wool to give it an electric charge.
M&M® Model of the Atom: Edible Subatomic Particles
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use colored candy to represent subatomic particles and make a model of an atom (Bohr model).
