Thames & Kosmos 644512 CHEM C2000 Chemistry Set

Are you ready to learn some chemistry? If so, then friendly and articulate Professor Probenius is ready to help you with clear instructions for preparing, performing, and most importantly understanding the 250 experiments that await you in Chem C2000, an amazingly complete and in-depth home chemistry set. Chem C2000 is not just another home set. It is a complete introduction to the most important topics in chemistry, aimed at ages 11 and up. The 96-page, full-color Experiment Manual guides aspiring young chemists through 250 experiments. 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. After you have some lab experience, 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. Learn how chemistry helps us in cooking and cleaning. Prepare a substance that glows in the dark. All along the way, Professor Probenius is there to offer safety advice, give explanations for the observed occurrences, and ask and answer question about the results. Thorough safety precautions and instructions ensure safe experimentation. Professional quality equipment and an easy-to-follow manual help you make the most of your chemistry experiments.
