Experiment Kit - Ash Tree

The "Ash Tree" experiment will allow children to immerse themselves in the world of science and create a tree using fire. The experiment can be conducted both at home and at school during chemistry lessons! The ash tree is the product... of the decomposition of a complex organic compound - calcium gluconate - into calcium oxide and carbon. Features of the experiment kit: - Contains all the necessary ingredients and instructions for conducting the experiment.  - The experiment does not take much time: you will need from 3 to 10 minutes. Instructions: Place a ceramic tile on a metal baking sheet or on a similar non-flammable surface. Pour urotropine onto the tile in a mound. Create a depression on the tile resembling a volcano crater. Pour calcium gluconate into the depression. Light the urotropine in several places. Watch as your ash tree begins to grow. At the end of the experiment, extinguish the fire! Engaging and useful! The "Ash Tree" experiment kit helps: spark interest in science and experiments; develop creative thinking and imagination. The experiment kit is designed for children over 5 years old. Children should conduct experiments only under adult supervision.
