Explain the principle of high surface tension as water acts like a membrane stretched across the surface preventing sulfur particles from sinking.

Create your own volcano for a science fair demonstration.

Demonstrate polymer chemistry.

Perform an autocatalytic reaction, observe how the product of a reaction can catalyze further reactions.

Observe the reaction of an amplolyte with both an acid and a base.

Perform a synthesis reaction to produce rubber - a simple condensation polymer.

Two solutions are poured together in a beaker and form a gel. The gel can be ignited with a match. Commercially this gel is sold as Sterno®.

Show how silicates of divalent ions are insoluble in water whereas silicates of monovalent ions are soluble.

Explain how there are exceptions to the rules of chemistry through a negative coefficient of solubility.
