2. Crystal Growing

Grow your own crystals using the provided materials. This experiment illustrates the principles of crystallization and solution saturation.

3. Soap-Powered Boats

Discover surface tension by making a balsa wood boat move across water using soap. This experiment highlights how surface tension can be altered by different substances.

4. Coral Erosion Test

Observe how acids can affect coral-like structures using the provided coral-shaped chalk. This experiment simulates environmental processes like ocean acidification.

5. Chromatography

Use chromatography paper to separate colors from markers or inks, demonstrating how different substances travel at different rates through a medium.

6. Slime Worms

Create slimy worms using sodium alginate and calcium chloride, exploring polymer science and chemical reactions that form new materials.

7. Invisible Ink

Learn about chemical indicators by creating and revealing invisible messages.

8. Magic Pepper

Explore surface tension with a simple yet captivating experiment involving pepper, water, and soap.

9. Salt & Ice

Investigate the effect of salt on the freezing point of water and its applications.

10. Other Experiments

The kit also includes experiments related to capillary action and other fundamental chemistry principles. Always follow the detailed instructions in the included experiment guide for best results.

Техникалык тейлөө

To ensure the longevity of your chemistry set and safety during future use:

• Clean all reusable components (beaker, petri dish, etc.) with warm, soapy water after each use and allow them to air dry completely.
• Store all chemicals in their original containers, tightly sealed, and in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.
• Keep the experiment guide and all small parts together in the original packaging or a designated storage container.
• Regularly inspect components for any damage or wear. Replace any damaged items to maintain safety and functionality.

Проблемаларды чечүү

If you encounter issues during experiments, consider the following common solutions:

• Experiment Not Working: Double-check the instructions in the experiment guide. Ensure all measurements are accurate and steps are followed precisely. Verify that all required household items (e.g., fresh vinegar) are used.
• Chemicals Not Reacting: Ensure the correct chemicals are being used for the specific experiment. Check expiration dates if applicable.
• Жетишпеген компоненттер: Refer to the Kit Contents list. If any essential components are missing upon opening the box, contact customer support.
• Коопсуздук маселелери: If any safety concerns arise, immediately stop the experiment, secure all materials, and refer to the Safety Information section or contact customer support.
