Chemistry Merit Badge PM (Ages 11 to 17)
Wacky experiments and chemical reactions await! In this hands-on class, you will learn to use chemicals safely, conduct flame tests to identify elements/metal ions, predict and demonstrate various chemical reactions and construct a Cartesian diver, describing its behavior in terms of how gases behave - and much more! Note: Be sure to bring on the first day of class - an empty 20 oz. water bottle for the Cartesian diver project AND an empty aluminum can (soda can etc - washed out please) for the "can crush experiment" exploring water vapor and differences in air pressure. Be prepared to have a blast!
This session runs from 1pm to 3:30pm on Saturdays, September 7th, 14th & 21st
Please remember to check the attachments for additional details before your class begins. BSA medical form AB is required and must be turned in at check-in.
