pH Testing and Unknowns Lab
This lab allows for students to work with the basics of pH by testing for the general acidity or basicity of a substance with litmus paper and the more exact pH with either pH paper or a pH probe. Students use the litmus paper as a means to just see how the paper reacts in each case, but the pH paper provides a number value to what the color change they see means. This lets them see a trend when testing the many substances, so as to see what types of substances tend to be more acidic, basic,
