Nasco Physical Science Lab Kit

Grades 9-12.

A physical science student lab station in a well-packaged portable container designed for non-conventional lab situations such as home schooling, or any situation that calls for an uncompromised lab experience with or without the presence of an experienced lab teacher and without the need for a traditional lab facility. Kit offers a complete lab course with virtually everything necessary to perform 34 physical science experiments (other than some common household items). Each lab includes step-by-step instructions. Kit is designed to make preparation, safety, and cleanup easy. The chemistry portions of the kit are based on the Microscale method, which uses about 1/100th of the chemicals a typical lab would consume. Chemical reagents come in dropper bottles and do not require any mixing or further preparation. To aid in lab safety, the kit contains no concentrated acids or bases, and the provided equipment is plastic whenever possible. The kit contains 11 chemicals, 55 different types of equipment, a manual, and a teacher’s answer guide. Allow extra delivery time.
