Chemistry Labs
The TOPS chemistry experiments are designed to integrate into a teacher’s current high school curriculum, conform to the Science Content Standards for California Public Schools, and employ a biochemical focus to enhance and bridge the biology and chemistry curricula. The experiments employ modern technology including computer driven instruments of the type used in local industrial laboratories as well as commercially available data analysis software.
Study of gas laws, and absolute zero using Apple MacBooks with heat engines, gas pressure sensors, aluminum air chambers, and rotary motion sensors.
Study of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide as affected by pH, temperature, and catalysis.
Study of stoichiometric relationship which governs the reaction in nature.
