In this demonstration, learners compare and contrast regular water ice to dry ice (frozen carbon dioxide). Both samples are placed in a solution of acid-base indicator.

Learners make kimchee or sauerkraut, which is really just fermented cabbage, in a 2-liter plastic bottle.

In this activity, learners investigate how increased carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the burning of fossil fuels is changing the acidity (pH) of the ocean and affecting coral reefs and other marin

In this activity, learners explore acids and bases by preparing six solutions that combine vinegar and ammonia, ranging from acid (all vinegar) to base (all ammonia).

In this experiment, learners test multiple food items to see if they are an acid or base using an indicator solution created with red cabbage.

In this activity, learners explore the factors that tend to resist changes in pH of the ocean and why the ocean is becoming more acidic.

In this field study, learners discover how to collect data in the field and how their efforts can help certain animals, specifically, amphibians.

In this chemistry demonstration, learners will discover that phenolphthalein is an acid/base indicator. One learner will read a poem about four witches making a potion.

In this activity on page 8 of the PDF (Behind the Scenes with Chemistry), learners make three of Harry Potter's essential school supplies: quills, ink, and color-changing paper.

In this chemistry activity, learners make indicator solution from red cabbage. Then, learners test everyday foods and household substances using the cabbage juice indicator.

In this online interactive simulation, learners will test the pH of liquids like coffee, spit, and soap to determine whether each is acidic, basic, or neutral.

In this activity, learners test the pH of safe liquids available at home by creating a pH indicator from mashed blueberries.

In this chemistry demonstration, acid rain is simulated in a petri dish.

Learners add acid rain (nitric acid) to two cups that represent lakes. One cup contains limestone gravel and the other contains granite gravel.

In this chemistry meets cooking activity, learners compare the stability of egg white foams with various additives.

Create gas with a glass of water, some wire, conductors and a battery! You will be separating water (H2O) into oxygen and hydrogen.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make a plastic protein polymer from milk. Adding vinegar to milk causes the protein casein to solidify or curdle.

Using electrolysis, learners produce hydrogen gas and oxygen gas from water molecules in a solution.

Learners make their own acid-base indicator from red cabbage. They use this indicator to test substances around the house.

In this chemistry activity, learners will learn how to make their own pH indicator using cabbage leaves, and then test common household items with their homemade indicator.
