Students will learn about acids and bases through a class discussion and then test a dilute acid and dilute base with neutral litmus paper to learn how the paper indicates something is acidic or basic. Once that skill is learned they can move on to test some common items that would be found around their house to determine if they are acids or bases. Optional: Extra litmus paper is included to test more items either from home or around the school building for a greater understanding of acids and bases. The activity contains enough materials for 6 groups of students.

Simply add 250 ml of distilled water to the dry luminol reagent. To utilize the luminol solution, spray the area of interest with the luminol solution and observe for blood evidence. The special luminol formulation does not require a separate hydrogen peroxide catalyst. Once hydrated the solution is good for up to 2 days if kept refrigerated.
