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...

High schoolers determine the concentration of an acid using titration. In this acid-base titration lesson plan, students determine the concentration of an unknown hydrochloric acid solution using phenolphthalein as an indicator and a...

Students prepare a test solution whose color changes when an acid or a base is added. They determine whether various household substances are acids or bases and look for patterns in the results. Students determine how their test solution...

Middle schoolers explore acids, bases, and indicators. They use turmeric solution, phenolphthalein, and goldenrod paper to determine the acidity and basicity of a variety of common household substances. A worksheet is included to record...

Students investigate the pH of various solutions with indicators. In this acids, bases and indicators lesson plan, students use a variety of indicators to test solutions for their pH. Students determine which indicators are the best to...

Students use plant materials as indicators of acids and bases. In this acid/base indicators lesson plan, students use boiled beets, cabbage, flowers, teas or berries that have been boiled with alcohol to test various acids and bases....

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...

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

A straight-forward exercise awaits your chemistry charges. Two pages provide plenty of room for them to calculate the pH of five solutions, determine the number of hydrogen and hydroxide ions, and solve problems dealing with solutions....

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

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.

Students investigate acids, bases,and pH. They test the acidity and basicity of various household items using litmus paper. Using their results, they rank the substances according to pH and identify the contributing chemical on the label.

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...

Acid rain, and how it affects the environment, is the focus of this Earth science lesson. During the study, learners evaluate measures to reduce acid rain, and design an investigation to demonstrate the conection between a hypothesis and...

In this neutralization worksheet, students determine the concentration of solution if neutralized by a certain amount of another solution. This worksheet has 7 problems to solve.

Students investigate about acids, bases, and pH and relate this information to the problem of acid deposition. They use pH paper, students test common household substances to determine whether they are acidic, basic, or neutral. Pupils...

Young chemists learns about acids and bases by coming up with a solution that will test for each. They also access the Internet to perform research. They are encouraged to contact students in other schools by conducting the experiment at...

Pupils explore acids, bases and salts. They define acid and base. Students describe the characteristics and properties of acids and bases. They relate the processes of ionization and dissociation to the formation of acids and bases.

Eighth graders define the pH scale, acids and bases. They distinguish between acidic and basic solutions using litmus paper. Students review simple chemical formulas. They define the subscript and coefficient in terms of chemical...

Seventh graders investigate acids and bases. In this acids and bases lesson, 7th graders use household items such as coffee, lemons and soap to define acids and bases. They observe a demonstration to show how indicators determine if a...

Students conduct an experiment called "What's the Solution? Acid, Base or Neutral." to determine the differences between these types of substance.

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...
