Description

Innovating Science Acid Rain, Weathering, and Erosion kit is used to examine the weathering and erosion effects of acidic rain on rock materials and metals, both naturally occurring and those commonly used in construction. The kit has activities that expose materials and metals to acidic conditions and normal rain (tap water) for comparison of reactions, with materials for 15 groups of students for hands-on learning, including rock and metal samples, sulfuric acid concentrate, and disposable measuring cups. The kit includes a teacher’s manual and student study guide copymasters for instructional use, and a material safety data sheet (MSDS) packet for product information and handling procedures. The kit is suitable for age 13 and older with adult supervision, and meets the requirements for Department of Transportation (DOT) small quantity exemption 173.4, and conforms to 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 173.4 for domestic highway or rail transport only.Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology.Innovating Science products, manufactured by Aldon Corporation, include educational kits for the chemistry, life science, green chemistry, advanced placement chemistry, and forensic fields. Aldon Corporation was founded in 1964, and is headquartered in Avon, NY.What’s in the Box?(1) bag calcium carbonate marble chips(1) bag brick chips(1) bag granite chips(1) bag limestone chips(1) bag sandstone chips(1) bag steel shot(1) bag copper shot(1) bag zinc shot(3) sulfuric acid concentrate (25.0mL)(120) disposable measuring cupsTeacher’s manualStudent study guide copymastersMaterial safety data sheet (MSDS) packet
