Acid Teacher Resources

In this biologically important molecules worksheet, students fill in the blank with information about carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. Students also make notes about nucleic acids.

Students study acids and bases and the uses of indicators. They interpret the actions of an indicator to conclude that bromothymol blue turns yellow in the presence of a weak acid.

For this acids and bases worksheet, students summarize the key properties of acids and bases and define pH. Students have 18 problems to solve.

In this chemical reactions worksheet, learners review the solubility rules for common salts. Students determine the molecular equation, ionic equation, and net ionic equation for specific reactions. Learners calculate moles and volume...

In this acids and bases worksheet, students calculate the pH or pOH of given amounts of different chemical compounds. This worksheet has 13 problems to solve.

High schoolers explore the role, functions, and conditions in which lactic acid is produced. They share ideas to complete a KWL on the vocabulary for the lesson then research these ideas futher on the internet using a set of prompting...

Eighth graders design and perform an experiment that uses a Universal Indicator Color Guide to measure the strength of acids and bases. They also determine happens when acids and bases are mixed together. They decide which of three...

Learners determine the concentration of acetic acid when the concentration of the base with which is titrated is known. They investigate how to weigh a sample using the balance, measure volumes using graduated cylinder, explore the...

Discussions of DNA occur in Jurassic Park, X-men, Dexter, and CSI, yet many don't fully understand it. The video explains what DNA is, where it is located, and how it forms proteins. The chemistry of life becomes understandable through...

Precipitation reactions are always interesting. How about one that forms a precipitate using a gas? Chemists of any age will enjoy this twist on a standard solubility lab. Partners observe the lack of interaction between sodium...

Learn about the Arrhenius Theory as well as the holes in the theory with a video introduces the Bronsted-Lowry Theory and details the relationships with ions and protons. 

Pupils puzzled over pH? Incorporate an interactive resource that teaches through games! Chemistry scholars use reasoning to solve puzzles that focus on determining the pH based upon hydrogen ion concentration.

Feeling a little neutral about your pH and pOH teaching strategy? Perk it up with engaging puzzles! Young scientists relate ion concentration to pH and pOH, as well as the dissociation constant for water. The resource is available as an...

Sometimes playing games in class isn't a bad thing. Science sleuths evaluate and calculate pH and pOH with an online resource. They then manipulate concentration information and relate it during a series of puzzles.

Frederick Sanger won two Nobel prizes for protein sequencing and DNA sequencing. Young scientists learn about Dr. Sanger's research and amazing discoveries. They read an article and a biography, view videos and animations, and apply...

Greenhouse gases affect marine wildlife in life-threatening ways. Through experimentation, your classes explore the acidification of water from the main greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. As they introduce carbon dioxide to water, a pH...

Students produce esters in the laboratory by combining different carboxylic acids with different alcohol. In this esterification lesson plan, students experiment with 3 carboxylic acids and 3 alcohols to produce 3 esters with fruit like...

In this chemistry in action worksheet, high schoolers read about sulphuric acid, the use of metals, the production of titanium and the detection of chemical elements and compounds. Students are given 8 statements about what they...

Students investigate making esters in the lab. In this ester lesson plan, students mix 3 organic acids with 3 alcohols and a catalyst to form 3 different esters. Students identify the odors of each ester and write the formulas for the...

In this ester activity, students mix organic acids with alcohols to produced esters and identify the products by the chemical reaction and the scent given off after the reaction occurs.

For this weak acid and base worksheet, students find the pH of solutions given the equilibrium constants for each of the weak acids and weak bases.

In this neutralization reaction worksheet, students read about how neutralization reactions are double replacement reactions in water. They complete five questions about neutralization reactions including completing five reactions and...

Students use symbols and dots to investigate the amino acids in a protein. In this problem solving lesson plan, students use dots and symbolic analogies to solve problems using the IDEAL problem solving method which includes identifying...

Students explore the effects of acid rain. In this acid rain lesson, students investigate the effects of the weathering from acid rain in different places. Students visit cemetaries to collect data about the effects of acid rain on the...
