- Define acid and base
- Perform an acid-base titration on microscale
- Verify acidity of vinegar sample meets FDA standards
A Carolina Exclusive! Grades 9–12. Students explore the characteristics of acids and bases, relate pH values to the concentration of hydronium and hydroxide ions, and conduct neutralization reactions. These explorations gain a real-life connection when students next examine household substances. In the final activity, they design experiments to test vinegar samples for compliance with FDA standards.
Part of the Inquiries in Science™ series. Materials are sufficient for 30 students working in groups of 3.
