Your Complete Chemistry Academy in a Box!

Welcome to Chemistry 101—home edition! Enroll in Chem C1000 and unlock a world of scientific discovery with over 125 captivating experiments that build real chemistry knowledge from the ground up. This isn't just a kit; it's your personal laboratory experience designed to spark a lifelong love of science.

Start by setting up your workspace like a real chemist and master safe handling techniques for all your equipment and chemicals. Then dive into the excitement: craft secret messages with invisible ink using pH indicators, race colored marker inks on a chromatography track to reveal their hidden components, and explore the physics of air pressure, surface tension, and fluid dynamics.

Get hands-on with metals like iron and copper, investigate the properties of carbon dioxide, and use electrochemical reactions to dissolve materials before your eyes. Discover the science of water by creating saturated and unsaturated solutions, growing crystals, splitting H₂O into hydrogen and oxygen through electrolysis, and generating oxygen from hydrogen peroxide.

Mix things up by experimenting with soaps, detergents, and water-oil emulsions. Take chemistry into the kitchen with investigations of sugar, honey, proteins in eggs, fatty acids, tannins, and calcium compounds.

This Chemistry Set includes:

  • 80-page full-color instruction manual
  • 125 hands-on experiments 
  • 30 unique pieces
