Prepare yourself for a lifetime of fascination with this essential
science.
Enroll in Chem C1000 and prepare yourself for a lifetime of fascination
with this essential science through 75 diverse experiments.
Build a mini fire extinguisher and make water flow uphill in experiments
with air pressure. Float a soap-powered boat to learn about the surface
tension of water. Entertain your friends and family with chemistry "magic"
tricks, and enlighten them with the scientific explanations behind the
magic. Turn "water" into "juice" and then into "milk." Identify the elements
in different chemical substances with dazzling colors in flame tests.
Discover how you can get electricity from a test tube in electrochemical
reactions. Use invisible inks to create an American flag that seems to
appear out of nowhere. Test the inks from your colored markers on the
chromatography racetrack to reveal their different color components.
Gain experience with some of the most important tools in the modern chem
lab. Learn about the elements that constitute the chemicals in the kit.
Begin to build a strong foundation in chemistry with exposure to a broad
range of chemical phenomena and hands-on laboratory experience.
Professor Probenius is your chemistry professor for Chem C1000. he
provides clear instructions for preparing and performing the experiments,
offers safety advice, gives explanations for the observed occurrences, and
asks and answers questions about the results.
Thorough safety precautions and instructions ensure safe experimentation.
Professional quality equipment and an easy-to-follow Experiment Manual help
you make the most of your chemistry experiments. The 40-page, full-color
Experiment Manual guides aspiring young chemists, chemical engineers, lab
technicians and researchers through the 75 experiments.
