Experiments
Here are experiments our science specialists have selected to support the IB* topic.
Investigating Indicators
Experiment #11 from Advanced Chemistry with Vernier
In this experiment, you will
- Conduct strong acid-strong base titrations using solutions of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide, and three different indicator solutions.
- Select the proper indicator to use with a titration involving a weak acid or a weak base, based on your observations and measurements.
Investigating LeChatelier’s Principle
Experiment #13 from Vernier Chemistry Investigations for Use with AP* Chemistry
This investigation will take advantage of your knowledge of LeChatelier’s Principle. It may also deepen understanding of equilibrium in general. The objective is to prepare six equilibrium systems in a set of test tubes that display the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet.
