You will start with fun experiments to learn basic chemistry principles. Build a mini fire extinguisher and float a soap-powered boat. Write with invisible ink and test colored markers on the chromatography racetrack. Entertain your friends with “magic” tricks, and then enlighten them with the scientific explanations behind the magic. Make dazzling colors in flame tests and produce electricity in a test tube. You will learn how to use the alcohol burner and perform experiments that require heat. Separate mixtures, add carbon dioxide to water and produce oxygen gas from hydrogen peroxide.Experiment with fuels and combustion. Make your own hydrochloric acid. Build a strong foundation in chemistry with exposure to a broad range of chemical phenomena and hands-on lab experience. As you gain experience with the tools and chemicals of the modern chem lab, you with also learn advanced topics such as chemical equations, atomic structures and the periodic table — concepts that are critical to continued study of chemistry.CHEM C3000 is an excellent way to prepare for high-school level, and even college level, chemistry. Thorough safety precautions and instructions ensure safe experimentation. Professional quality equipment and an easy-to-follow Experiment Manual help you make the most of your chemistry experiments.CHEM C3000 includes all this and much more... • introduction to chemistry • safety information • setting up your workspace • acids & bases • salts & solutions • elements & compounds • solids, liquids and gases • combustion • air & air pressure • air pollution • our environment • metals, oxidation and rust • atoms & molecules • history of chemistry • crystal lattices • chemical formulas • ubiquitous elements • oxygen • hydrogen • water • solutions and saturation • hydrogen peroxide • atomic bonds • orbitals and shells • chlorine & hydrochloric acid • bromine & iodine • families of elements • the periodic table • sulfur • carbon dioxide • mineral deposits • baking soda & powder • ammonia • crystals & solutions • chemical indicators • separating mixtures • chromatography • electron transfer • electrolysis • electrochemistry • carbon • fossil fuels • alcohols • oils, soaps & detergents • sugars • monomers & polymers • starches • proteins • waste disposal • questions & answers
