Welcome to the Office of Science Outreach University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Chemical Demonstration Shows |
|||
 |
 |
 |
|
| A
senior member of the Science Outreach Office with at least one student assistant
will engage students in a fun-filled exploration of science demonstrations.
Using both chemical and physical interactions, students will be introduced
to the concepts of chemical indicators; relative particle size and reaction
rates; physical changes in the size, shape, and position of matter; along
with several other chemical changes related to catalysts, polymers, acids/base
etc. Several students will be selected from the audience to participate
in some activities. Although chemical magic may be suggested by the students
as answers to why certain changes occur, the instructors will explain at
a very elementary level, the changes that matter is undergoing during each
demonstration.
The approximately 12-15 demonstrations have been performed many times and well received by all ages. |
