Most things naturally strive for balance, and acids and bases are no exception. Neutralization of acids and bases allows scholars to explore the color changes associated with the pH scale. After this exploration, pupils neutralize two...

Over a 10-year period, EPA regulations cost businesses less than $30 billion, while businesses saved over $82 billion. Scholars experiment with acids and bases to better understand the pH scale. Then they debate environmental regulation...

Now that your science class has experimented with pH indicator and identified acids and bases, they attempt to get the cabbage juice indicator back to its original color. This is done through neutralization of the acids and bases that...

Tenth graders distinguish between acids and bases. For this pH lesson, 10th graders view a PowerPoint and discuss the characteristics of an acid and a base. They investigate natural substances to determine the pH level of each.

Fifth graders perform tests to identify acids and bases.  In this chemistry instructional activity, 5th graders identify common household substances as acids or bases using cabbage juice indicator strips.

What did one titration say to the other titration? We should meet at the end point! Young chemists perform four experiments: dilute solution, neutralization, titration, and figuring pH/pOH. 

Getting back to the beginning of the unit, learners use reactions with red cabbage juice to determine if solutions are acidic, neutral, or basic. This is a straightforward and classic investigation, but what you will appreciate is the...

Students explore acids and bases. In this instructional activity about acids and bases, students do an experiment to test certain items to determine what they are. Students use cabbage and litmus paper as indicators. Students understand...

Students try to cure an upset stomach. In this acids and bases in the body lesson, students create a upset stomach with a vinegar and water solution, then use antacids and home remedies to attempt to restore pH balance to the mixture.

Color can tell a lot about a substance. Scholars test several solutions to determine pH. Once the results are complete, they then use the pH tests to classify substances as acids and bases.

Did you know strong bases can feel slippery and slimy? Lesson allows scholars to practice using the pH scale to identify acids and bases and their strengths. By changing the concentration of an acid and a base, they create the entire...

Base your lesson plan on acids and bases on an informative resource. The first installment of a five-part module on the science behind Harry Potter has individuals investigate acid/base chemistry with the use of invisible inks. They also...

Litmus paper, why so blue? A chemistry lesson includes a pre-lab activity, practice calculating pH, an experiment measuring the pH in acids and bases, a titration demonstration, and a titration experiment. 

Pupils are introduced to the differences between acids and bases and how to use indicators, such as pH paper and red cabbage juice, to distinguish between them. They make predictions that can be answered through scientific investigation,...

Sixth graders observe the physical and chemical change that can occur in an acid and a base. In this acids and bases lesson plan, 6th graders use cabbage juice to identify, compare, and contrast acids and bases.

Students identify the differences between acids and bases. In this acids and bases lesson plan, students identify and distinguish between acids and bases. They use household products to test the ph levels. They test the ph levels by...

Students observe and investigate properties of acids and bases. In this acids and bases lesson plan, students perform 5 different experiments including reactions of acids and metals, reaction of acids with carbonates, neutralization...

Fourth graders compare the color of cabbage water when acids and bases are mixed in. In this acids and bases lesson plan, 4th graders use cabbage water and mix in acids and bases that the teacher prepares before hand. They observe the...

Learners observe a demonstration where a liquid changes colors when poured from one beaker to another. In this acids and bases lesson plan, students observe solutions changing color when poured from one beaker to the next based on the...

Learners use litmus paper to begin to discover the qualities of acids and bases. They learn about pH by testing clear liquids for acidity with purple cabbage juice as an indicator. The video Streamkeeper, with Bill Nye, and other video...

Chemistry or physical science fledglings get comfortable identifying acids and bases with a variety of pH indicators. They discover that different indicator solutions have different ranges, practice testing soil acidity, and use antacids...

Sugar crystal growth is observed as an example of physical change and cabbage juice pH indicator is used to demonstrate chemical change. The crystal growth is tracked over five days. The cabbage juice experiment is involved and can also...

Do antacid tablets really do what they claim? An experimental lesson plan attempts to answer this question. Individuals practice the process of titration during the first part of the experiment. They then use those skills to neutralize...

Young scholars experiment with acids and bases using technology-based "probe-ware", computers, and household products in this exciting biology/chemistry lesson. The lesson was written for an advanced 6th grade class.
