-
Acid Base Reactions | Middle School
Lab: New acid base reactions resource
New acid base reactions resource!!!

Chemical Change, Chemical Change, Acid Base Reactions, Observations | Middle School, High School
Lab: How do Sinkholes Form?
In this lab students will learn how acidic groundwater reacts with limestone, causing it to erode. Sinkholes form when eroded limestone underneath the surface of the earth can no longer support the ground above it. Students will test how acid reacts with a variety of rocks and determine which rocks would be best to build a city on top of in order to reduce the chance of sinkholes forming.

Reaction Rate, Reaction Rate, Chemical Change, Acid Base Reactions | Middle School
Lab: Bath Bomb Chemistry!
In this lab, the students will work in cooperative groups to investigate how to make a scented, effervescent bath bomb and explore the chemistry needed to create them. Groups will test a variety of different variables in order to compare the reaction rate of each sample. Students will use the results to determine which variables are optimal for making and using bath bombs.
-
Physical Change, Chemical Change, Identifying an Unknown, Acid Base Reactions | Middle School
Lab: Is It a Hoax
In this lab, students will perform tests on the physical and chemical properties of different substances to determine the identity of the unknown.
-
Chemical Change, Pressure, Reaction Rate, Acid Base Reactions, Chemical Change, Conservation of Matter | Elementary School, Middle School
Lab: Rocket Challenge
In this lab, students will have the opportunity to construct a rocket, with the challenges of both designing it and preparing a chemical reaction for its “fuel” in order to propel the rocket over the furthest distance. Students will investigate available materials, quantities and ratios during allotted planning and testing phases. Student will record their plans, modifications and designs during the process. The lab will culminate with a competition amongst students to see whose rocket will travel the longest distance.

Reaction Rate, Reaction Rate, Acid Base Reactions | Middle School, High School
Lab: Plop, Fizz: How to Affect the Rate of a Chemical Reaction
In this lesson, students will react Alka-Seltzer tablets with water. By varying the temperature of the water, particle size of the Alka-Seltzer, and concentration of the Alka-Seltzer they can see the effect on the rate and strength of the chemical reaction.

Indicators, Acid Base Reactions | High School, Elementary School, Middle School
Demonstration: Another Secret Message
In this demonstration, students will observe a hidden message while understanding simple acid/base chemistry and indicators.
