Chemistry Discovery Days
Discover Chemistry Days is designed to complement the Grade 6-9 Science learning outcomes. Recently, we have highlighted听three major events:
- Green Chemistry
- Thermal Energy
- Magic Show
In听its inaugural year, we hosted some 600 students in our department who participated in 1800 students-hours of hands-on science. We guarantee things will be even bigger and better than before!
Discovery Days sessions are 1 hour long. You can register for one, two or join us for all three.
Green Chemistry
We鈥檝e all heard how CO2 is the leading contributor of global warming. But did you know that CO2 is leading a new branch of environmentally conscious science 鈥� green chemistry. In this session, students will discovery natural product chemistry, compound extraction, mixtures, solutions, and spectroscopy.
Thermal Energy
Chemistry studies the interaction of matter and energy, with the major source of energy on earth coming ultimately from the sun. Discover just how to harness the power of the sun, while learning about heat transfer, infrared radiation, and temperature measurement.
Chemistry Magic Show
Modern science grew from careful observation and experimentation with the physical and natural world. To those who didn鈥檛 understand, Chemistry seemed to hold 鈥榤agical鈥� powers. But a basic understanding of the periodic properties of elements can change magic into science. Understand the science behind the magic or not, this is still a fascinating show to watch!
