Lab-Aids: Investigating the Chemistry of Corrosion Expand-A-Kit
This EXPAND-A KIT package when added to the base kit (pictured) provides enough material for one additional group of 4 students. Developed by SEPUP.
Scientific Concepts:
- Substances react chemically in characteristic ways with other substances to form new substances (compounds) with different characteristic properties
- Metals are a group of substances that react in similar ways. Corrosion is one type of reaction that affects metals
- Metal corrosion is an example of an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction, which involves the transfer of electrons
- Students summarize results of an investigation and form a logical argument about the cause-and-effect relationships in the investigation
