Ice Cream
High schoolers explore the concept of the colligative property. Through experimentation, students lower the freezing point of a liquid in order to create a solid by using household ingredients to create ice cream.
Curated OER
Freezing Point Depression
Students create ice cream in a zipped bag and measure the temperature of a salt/ice mixture. They discover how salt lowers the temperature necessary to freeze ice to a solid (below 0'C).
