Chemical purchases under $50 requires an additional $10 handling fee.
Manufacturer ID - IS6503
Students will learn about acids and bases through a class discussion and then test a dilute acid and dilute base with neutral litmus paper to learn how the paper indicates something is acidic or basic. Once that skill is learned they can move on to test some common items that would be found around their house to determine if they are acids or bases. Optional: Extra litmus paper is included to test more items either from home or around the school building for a greater understanding of acids and bases. The activity contains enough materials for 6 groups of students.
Description
Through the use of a gas pressure sensor, you will be able to monitor the pressure change in a sealed environment and the pressure change provides an indication of the rate of CO2 production. Yeast will be exposed to four different sugar solutions and the overall pressure changes for fermentation in each sugar solution will be compared, providing an indication as to how effective the fermentation process is in the presence of each of the sugars. With this data students will determine the optimum food source for yeast by monitoring growth rate and respiration. There are enough materials for 15 groups and includes a Teacher's Guide and Student copymasters.
