Manufacturer ID - IS3470
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
In this activity, students will be introduced to the field of materials science as they explore the four main types of materials: metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites. They will test the physical and mechanical properties of different material samples, then categorize each material based on their results. Kit contains enough material for 15 groups. Teacher's Guide and Student Study Guide copymasters included.
Aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)*
Disciplinary Core Ideas: ETS1.A; ETS1.B; PS2.B
Performance Expectations: MS-ETS1-1; HS-ETS1-3; HS-PS2-6
Cross Cutting Concepts: Influence of Science, Engineering, and Technology on Society and the Natural World; Structure and Function
Engineering Practices: Asking Questions and Defining Problems; Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions; Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information
Kit Includes:
30 Aluminum strips
30 Copper strips
30 Tongue depressors
30 Playing cards
