Welcome, young scientists and teachers! This eBook is full of fun and colorful experiments that show how different substances can react to create amazing effects. You will see bubbles, color changes, fizzing eruptions, and even “rockets” that zoom up into the air. As you explore these experiments, remember that science is all about asking questions, observing closely, and having fun learning about the world around us.
There are 20 exciting chemistry experiments included. They all involve simple chemical reactions that can be safely performed by kids. For each experiment, the materials are listed, and the step-by-step procedure. Finally, an explanation is given, so as to highlight the science behind the experiment.
Last but not least: All experiments must be conducted under strict adult supervision. Always wear safety goggles (or ask an adult to help you wear them) and use the experiments in a safe area where spills can be easily cleaned up.
