What’s In Your Water?: Long Term Effects of Acid Rain
by Jaime Camero
In this unit, students will study the effects of acid rain and chemically engineer an environmentally friendly solution to neutralize the acid in a simulated river contaminated by factory run-off. Students will use alkaline vegetable solutions to neutralize the acid of lemon juice. This unit ideally requires four to five days for full implementation, but includes accommodations for a two day simulation.
