Chem C2000 - Intermediate Chemistry Set

The Chem C2000 Intermediate Chemistry Set by Thames & Kosmos has been updated and improved. This intermediate chemistry set for kids features high-quality lab equipment to use when conducting 250 educational and fun experiments. While children will be able to conduct all of the experiments included in the C1000 chemistry set, additional chemicals and lab equipment double the possible experiments. Kids will explore practical uses for Luminol, colorful chemistry, greenhouse gas, acid rain, and even create a miniature hydrogen factory with the included alcohol burner, which also allows kids to ignite a miniature hydrogen explosion. Utilizing the full-color experiment manual, kids will learn how to properly work with and clean each piece of professional grade lab equipment before conducting the many experiments that look more like magic than science. Forming and supporting opinions with evidence are valuable skills kids can use throughout their lives, even if they don?t enter a field involving chemistry.

With over 30 more pages than the previous manual, the Chem C2000's experiment manual provides much more clear and easy to follow instructions. Beginning with an introduction to parents, proper safety precautions are stressed to ensure children will be able to conduct the 250 experiments safely and successfully. While the chemistry set for kids is safe to use, proper precautions should be taken when working with chemicals. While key information and cautionary statements are colorfully highlighted to ensure each experiment is conducted safely, the full-color experiment manual gives children and parents detailed photographs and illustrations to help in arranging each incredible experiment. Key reactions children witness in the experiments are explained in What's Happening Here?? boxes and helpful blue tips boxes are dispersed throughout the manual to help children achieve the best results with their experiments. Thought provoking questions accompany most experiments and the manual clearly explains how particular experiments have an impact on technology and the environment. Children will not only gain a full understanding of how each chemical reaction works, but also why it is important to us in the real world, making each fantastic discovery even more meaningful to them.

While this chemistry set is ideal for science-minded kids to use at home, the high quality materials and experiments that gradually advance from basic to more difficult make it an excellent set for use in the science classroom as well. Active young learners will have fun gaining an understanding of the fascinating properties of chemistry, while safety is stressed throughout the experiments to ensure that children handle lab equipment and chemicals properly. Kids will love unlocking the mysteries of the natural world by mixing ingredients, causing reactions with heat, and using the scientific process to record what they observe during each exciting hands-on interaction. Thames & Kosmos makes chemistry fun and educational for kids with the C2000 Intermediate Chemistry Set.
