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.


Safety Data Sheet

Description
Show students it is possible to produce acetylsalicylic acid from a naturally-occurring, renewable resource. Students will convert sodium salicylate to salicylic acid, collect and dry prepared salicylic acid. They may then use a quick confirmatory test to examine for the presence of salicylic acid. The prepared salicylic acid can then be used to synthesize acetylsalicylic acid. Kit contains enough materials for 15 groups. Teacher's Manual and Student Study Guide copymasters are included.
