Students will learn about acids and bases, identify the pH of solutions, and how we interact with acids and bases daily. What happens when you combine an acid and a base in a chemical reaction? Students will learn that ions determine whether a substance is an acid or a base. Students will also learn about the neutralization reaction and what happens when an acid and base are combined. Cabbage water is an indicator of pH! This cabbage water lab includes easy directions for making cabbage water.
