Structured experiments with supporting teacher notes
for microscale chemistry experiments relating to:
- acids and bases
- reactions of metals with acids
- displacement reactions
- making and using a conductivity meter
Each experiment uses an OHT plastic sheet over a worksheet
on which students investigate the reactions. Though
not specifically designed for students with special
needs, these experiments were felt to be very useful
and performed in varying situations. Further ideas are
provided in the teacher notes.
These experiments have been kindly donated by the Royal
Society of Chemistry, originating from their publication
Microscale chemistry, Experiments in Minature
by John Skinner, the RSC Schoolteacher Fellow 1995-96.
The experiments were developed as a means to carry out
chemistry experiments on a reduced scale, using small
quantities and often (but not always) simple equipment.

The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) is the UK
professional body for chemical scientists and
an international learned society for the chemical
sciences with 46,000 members world-wide. It is
a major international publisher of chemical information,
supports the teaching of the chemical sciences
at all levels and is a leader in bringing science
to the public. The RSC provides LearnNet, a new
network designed for the use of teachers and students
of chemistry at all levels. The network aims to
provide access to products and information relevant
to the study of chemistry. This site has been
classified by experts in the teaching of chemistry
to ensure that the best interests of the users
have been accommodated at all times. Find them
