Learn concepts of air pollution and its harmful effects using one form of a common air pollutant, sulfur dioxide on experiments with plant life. This kit provides instruction, apparatus and materials to experiment with plant seedlings exposed to a sulfur dioxide atmosphere at a known concentration which produces an effect on plant life that can easily be observed within several days.
Observe the effects of 3 doses of gamma irradiation on seeds and compare with control seeds. Rye grass and mung bean seeds have a short germination period, so students can see the effects within 48 hours and the experiment can be completed within 2 weeks. Kit contains enough for 30 students to work individually.
Specifically designed to dramatically and vividly show the classroom a pollutant in water, this kit is designed to permit students the opportunity of determining the presence of animal waste by seeing a dramatic color change that occurs in a lactose broth, students can determine if E coli are present. Grades 7-12.

An investigative study into the chemical nature of commercial shampoos. The student can perform the following experiments: pH determination; solid content determination; determination of flash foam formation; determination of foam retention time; determination of relative viscosity; India Ink dispersion test and determination of cost per 5 ml of shampoo. Each kit provides materials for 12 pairs of students. Grades 8-12.
This kit is a unique teaching tool for introducing your students to the chemistry behind plant pigments (the blueberry biopigment cyanidan) and how they can be used as pH indicators and fabric dyes. They use their knowledge to create their own pH test strips and evaluate them against a commercial type. Includes materials for four detailed activities featuring "model" and "inquiry" investigation paths – a total of 11 investigational activities, which can accommodate up to 40 students! Also contains a DVD with PDF Teacher and Student Guides and other digital content (see below). Covered concepts include: data analysis, accuracy vs. precision, biopigment structure, pH, pH scale, pH indicators, stains and dyes, acids, bases, acid-base interactions, solutions, and self ionization of water. STEM based curriculum kits accent the scientific method and independent inquiry featuring hands-on learning materials and exciting interactive digital content that can be accessed on a computer, tablet or your mobile device. Kits contain structured, guided, and open investigations, at introductory, intermediate, and advanced levels, to make inquiry based learning affordable and fun. Requires additional household materials for independent investigations. Student activity PDFs have a special Typewriter functionality allowing them to take notes, record experimental data, and answer analysis questions. They simply e-mail their worksheets back to you!

Build 3-D models of molecules! Each atom center is designed to accept bonds at the proper angle which gives the appearance of molecular bonding. Molecular sets are easily constructed using the plastic components. 12 sets each: 2 black tetrahedral carbon centers 2 Blue tetrahedral nitrogen centers 6 Green univalent chlorine centers 4 Red diunivalent oxygen centers 1 Yellow diunivalent sulfur center 8 White univalent hydrogen centers 20 Plastic bond connectors 4 Flexible connectors Teacher's Guide and reproducible student worksheet are included.
This Crystal Model Set contains different colored jacks (Red, Black and White) and connectors (long and short) in a prescribed number to be joined together in an illustrated way to form a Sodium Chloride structure. Material: Polyethylene.
8 1/4"x 11" Designed in Germany by a well-reputed chemistry teacher, our full-color, illustrated Periodic Table of the Elements features the natural look of the elements or their most usual application. Our poster and wall-sized editions will fit well on your office or classroom wall, while the binder size provides all the pertinent data on the elements on the reverse side and fits well in your students' binders.
Proper dissolved oxygen levels are essential for aquatic ecosystems. A dissolved oxygen level of 5 mg/L or greater will support healthy growth of most fish species. Other applications include monitoring in waste water treatment plants, determination of BOD and COD. This test kit uses an adaptation of the Winkler method to determine dissolved oxygen. Includes 100 tests.
It’s time to start mixing things up! In this pretend STEM scenario, you are a chemist for a bath and body products company and it’s your job to make and test different cosmetic products. Use the tools in your laboratory to employ different scientific techniques and essential chemistry principles to make soaps and bath bombs. Try out different additives to affect the color, smell, and other qualities of the products you make.
Real science and pretend play come together in this activity-filled kit that can be used alone or as an extension of the Ooze Labs Chemistry Station (a Parents’ Choice Silver Honor winner!). As you mold different glycerin soap shapes, you learn about the chemical properties of soap that help it pick up and wash away dirt. While you’re concocting bath bombs, you learn about how acids and bases combine to form fizzing reactions, and what a pH level is. Expand your cosmetics knowledge with an overview of the biology of skin care and other science related to soap and bath products. All materials and chemicals are non-toxic.
