Description
In this lab, you will gain an understanding of the
basic differences between the properties of acids
and bases. Know the role of hydrogen and hydroxide
ions in acids and bases. Comprehend the nature of
the pH scale with regards to acid and base strength.
Students will examine the effects of acids and bases
on several chemical pH indicators, determine the pH
of several common household materials, and use the
knowledge gained to determine the composition
of four unknown clear solutions. There are enough
materials for 15 groups. Teacher’s manual and student
