Chemistry Lab C1000

With the KOSMOS Chemistry Lab C1000, curious children discover the world of substances: Do you want to know... how to detect chemical substances? ... how to paint chemical pictures? ... which gas fizzes in mineral water? Young explorers observe the chemical properties of familiar substances in 125 vivid experiments: whether it's a color change due to vinegar or separation methods for felt-tip pen colors. Chemistry is not only full of surprises, it's also everywhere in our daily lives! The colorful, richly illustrated instruction manual introduces children to chemical work practices in a child-friendly way: from experiments with chemicals, solutions, and self-produced gases to first chemical reactions or substance detection, there is much to observe. This way, chemical knowledge is imparted through independent experimenting, and an enjoyment of chemistry is awakened.
