Description
- Traditionally, this test poses safety concerns for students in a laboratory setting. This kit minimizes these concerns by utilizing small candles that are easier to manage in a lab setting.
- There is no loss in the clarity of the emission spectra from the candles, making it easy for students to observe and deduce what element is causing the colored flame.
- Kit contains enough material for 5 groups
- Teacher's Manual and Student Study Guide copymasters are included
- Aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)
- Disciplinary Core Ideas: PS1A; PS1B
- Performance Expectations: MS-PS1-1; MS-PS1-2; HS-PS1-2; HS-PS1-4
- Cross Cutting Concepts: Patterns; Scale, Proportion and Quantity; Energy and Matter
- Engineering Practices: Developing and Using Models; Analyzing and Interpreting Data; Scientific Knowledge is Based on Empirical vidence
