ENGAGE
Show pictures of different swimming pools. Let students focus on the Pictures of swimming pool
swimming pool crowded with a lot of people. Make them realize how
contaminated that swimming pool is and its effect to humans when not
treated.
For health reasons, swimming pools are regularly treated with chemicals that
are usually called “chlorine” (Calcium hypochlorite or sodium hypochlorite)
as disinfectants. The effectiveness of these disinfectants depends on how
acidic or basic the water is. Pool owners must therefore measure and, if
necessary, adjust, the acidity of their pool through a pH test kit.
What do the terms acidic, basic and pH test mean?
EXPLORE
To give students the idea on how they will classify substances, the teacher Mixtures of turmeric and
will mix the prepared substances to show color changes. rubbing alcohol, baking soda
and water, and vinegar
Key Question: Why does a substance give a distinctive color when mixed
with other substance?
Students will perform the activity “Acids and Bases in the Home.” The 10 Different household
activity aims to investigate the properties of acidic and basic mixtures using solutions
plant indicator and classify them as acid or base. 3 Plastic teaspoons
Plastic egg tray or
10 party cups made into saucers
Key Questions: 3 Plant indicators freshly
1. What color is the indicator in acidic solution? In basic solution? prepared
