Kosmos Chemielabor C500 (D / 10-14)

What happens when carbon dioxide is produced? How can you detect invisible gases? What are solutions and why does it foam when bathing? With this introductory course, children aged 9 to 13 learn the most important basic chemical terms such as solutions, mixtures of substances, elements and compounds in their laboratory and train how to use their first laboratory equipment correctly. They quickly find out how to dose liquids with the pipette, what Petri dishes are needed for and how to handle the four enclosed chemicals safely and adeptly. The young researchers observe the formation of carbon dioxide, detect acids and bases with an indicator solution, investigate what soap and shower gel are all about and can even carry out simple electrochemical experiments. Everything is explained step-by-step and age-appropriate in the instruction booklet of the KOSMOS experiment kit. The ideal start to gain initial experience in the exciting MINT science of Chemie .
