Product Details

Introduce students to air and water pollutants using this comprehensive, hands-on kit. Students will gain a deeper understanding of air quality by performing valuable experiments to detect smoke, particulate materials and acidic gases in air. Safe and easy tablet-type tests are used to explore critical water factors, such as pH, phosphate and ammonia. Kit includes detailed background information, complete instructions and reproducible student handouts.

Complete for 30 students working in pairs.

Performance Expectations

HS-PS1-8. Develop models to illustrate the changes in the composition of the nucleus of the atom and the energy released during the processes of fission, fusion, and radioactive decay.
HS-PS4-3. Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning behind the idea that electromagnetic radiation can be described either by a wave model or a particle model, and that for some situations one model is more useful than the other.
MS-PS1-1. Develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures.
