Thames & Kosmos Crystal Growing Science Kit Grow Over A Dozen Crystals with 15 Experiments, Includes Storage Case & 32 Page Color Laboratory Manual
Description
We absolutely love this crystal growing kit from Thames &
Kosmos. The 15 experiments progress from simple to complex, providing the
perfect learning experience for new chemists. Grow dozens of dazzling
crystals! A full-color, 32-page experiment manual guides your experiments in
crystal chemistry. From the Manufacturer Grow dozens of dazzling crystals and
conduct 15 illuminating experiments with this classic science kit. Experiment
with four chemically different crystals each with different properties,
including potassium alum crystals that form regular octahedrons, rapidly
growing sodium sulfate crystals, long needle-shaped sodium acetate crystals,
and plaster which is made from gypsum crystals. Mold fun plaster shapes,
including stars, lightning bolts, dolphins, and pyramids, and grow layers of
crystals on them. Use dyes to form colored crystals, and mix the dyes to grow
a rainbow of custom colored crystals. Display your crystal creations in a
clear treasure chest with a locking lid. Mold your own geode — a hollow rock
with crystals growing inside — and create a beautiful crystal cavern inside.
Experiment with growing crystals rapidly and slowly, and observe how that
affects the crystal structures. See if you can grow one giant crystal, and
many small crystals on the surface of a rock. Measure how the crystallization
of solids out of a solution, and the dissolution of crystals back into
solution, affect the temperature of the solution. Learn about the energy of
crystallization. Investigate solutions, crystallization, and the chemistry of
crystal growing. Learn about the structures and geometries of different
crystal shapes. This kit is thoroughly tested and safe: Over one million units
of this kit have sold worldwide. A full-color, 32-page experiment manual
guides your experiments in crystal chemistry and Earth science.
