Eisco Labs Student Voltaic Cell & Porous Cup with Scientific Experiment Guide | Demonstrate Reduction & Oxidation Reactions | Develop and Test Hypothesis

• CREATE VOLTAIC CELLS - Provides students with an understanding of galvanic cells by having them create them on their own
• TRANSFER OF ELECTRONS - Teach students about reduction-oxidation reactions as these electrons move from one metal to another
• FOSTER CREATIVITY - Allows students to create their own experiments and process in a guided fashion to test hypotheses
• GREAT FOR SCIENCE TEACHERS - Includes comprehensive activity guide and student worksheet master copies to navigate through these experiments
• MANY COMPONENTS PROVIDED - Kit contains a number of items needed to visually see chemical energy turning into electrical energy

This kit is used to provide students with an understanding of voltaic or galvanic cells and the transfer of electrons from one metal to another in specific chemical reactions (oxidization-reduction reactions). In the first activity, students set up and familiarize themselves with voltaic cells. Worksheets are provided in the instruction manual to help guide them through this process. In the second activity students apply their newly accumulated knowledge to make observations regarding the apparatus. They then have a chance to develop their scientific creativity by developing their own investigative questions and hypothesis and finally their own experimental procedure. First Experiment If using this kit with middle school students it can serve as a visual demonstration of chemical energy converting into electrical energy. To do this, a 1V bulb is placed between the two electrodes and illuminates when the switch is closed, connecting the two electrodes.
