YOUNG SCIENTISTS IN ACTION
The Grade 11 students explore captivating and fascinating chemistry through a series of hands-on experiments designed to unravel the mysteries of chemical reactions. Under the guidance of their chemistry teacher Mr. Charlie M. Uson, these young scientists engaged in a journey of discovery, exploring fundamental principles and observing firsthand the transformations that occur when substances interact.
The canteen buzzed with excitement as students properly followed procedures, prepared materials, and recorded observations. One of the experiments that captured the essence of chemistry is the "Lava lamp". From the effervescent reaction of baking soda with vinegar to the color changes observed in indicator solutions, each observation provided valuable insights into the nature of Chemistry.
The highlight of the day was undoubtedly the "Lava lamp" in which it explores the principles of density, heat transfer, and convection currents in a visually captivating way.
As the experiments concluded, students gathered to discuss their findings, analyze data, and draw conclusions. Through collaborative efforts and critical thinking, they deepened their understanding of chemical principles and honed their laboratory skills.
The other experiments are: Dancing Kernel, Unmixing experiment, Density Layers, Oobleck, Non-Neutonian, Elephant toothpaste, Lemon Volcano, Sodium Bicarbonate, Fire snake, Flaming bubbles and 7 layer density.
In conclusion, the chemistry experimentation activity provided Grade 11 students with a hands-on opportunity to explore the fascinating world of chemical reactions. Each experiment offered valuable insights and fostered a spirit of scientific inquiry among the participants. As these young scientists continue their academic journey, they carry with them the excitement and curiosity ignited by today's experiments, paving the way for future discoveries and innovations in the world of chemistry.
