Description

Aldon Innovating Science Effect of Salinity on Seawater

The world’s ocean system contains a dynamic thermohaline current system that is responsible for many aspects of our environment. The experiments in this kit have been designed to help visualize the impact solutions of different density have on each other when mixed. Students will measure the salinity of three different water samples representing three major salt water bodies, as well as perform an experiment in which they will observe the flow patterns when different density solutions are mixed. This kit has enough materials for 15 groups: 10mL Phenolphthalein Indicator, 15mL 1.0M Potassium Chromate, 400mL 0.1M Silver Nitrate, 200mL 3.0M Sodium Hydroxide, 250mL Synthetic Atlantic Ocean Water, 250mL Synthetic Gulf of Mexico Water, 250mL Synthetic Pacific Ocean Water, plus Teacher’s Guide and Student Study Guide Copymasters.
