Experiments
Here are experiments our science specialists have selected to support the IB* topic.
The Effect of Acid Rain on a Marble Structure
Experiment #10 from Vernier Chemistry Investigations for Use with AP* Chemistry
The objectives in this investigation are (1) to demonstrate and measure the effect of acid rain on exposed stone surfaces, and (2) to calculate the rate of acid degradation of limestone.
The Effect of Acid Deposition on Aqueous Systems
Experiment #16 from Investigating Chemistry through Inquiry
In Part I of the Preliminary Activity, you will use a pH Sensor to monitor pH as dilute sulfuric acid is added drop wise to a water sample.
General water hardness is related to the dissolved minerals in the water. In Part II of the Preliminary Activity, you will use a Conductivity Probe to determine the conductivity of water from the same source.
