Brand: Thames & Kosmos

Product DescriptionCHEM C2000 is the intermediate step in the acclaimed Thames & Kosmos CHEM series - the kit where chemistry stops feeling like a craft project and starts feeling like real science. Inside the box, you'll find professional-quality lab equipment, 13 real chemicals, and a 128-page, full-color experiment manual that guides young chemists through 250 experiments organized into 18 themed chapters. The kit doubles the tools and materials of CHEM C1000 and offers more than three times the experiments - most notably introducing an alcohol burner that opens up an entirely new category of heat-based reactions. The manual is structured as a genuine introduction to chemistry, building skills chapter by chapter. Young chemists work through the physical and chemical properties of water; oxygen, hydrogen, and the gases of the air; acids, bases, and salts; carbon dioxide and the greenhouse effect; sulfur dioxide and acid rain; chlorine chemistry from table salt; sodium carbonate and bicarbonate; quicklime and plaster; ammonium chloride (the salt of Amun Ra); the chemistry of iron and copper; paper chromatography; the chemistry of foods including sugars, starches, fats, and proteins; surfactants and soaps; and the spectacular cold light of luminol. After completing CHEM C2000, students will have firsthand experience with the most important topics in chemistry, creating an excellent foundation for the later study of chemical equations and atomic structure tackled in CHEM C3000. The included lab equipment is built for serious work, not play: a full alcohol burner assembly with tripod components and wire mesh, glass test tubes, two graduated beakers with lids, dropper pipettes, glass and rubber tubing, a carbon electrode and alligator-clip wires for electrochemistry, an immersion heater, filter paper, and Z87-rated protective safety goggles. Designed and manufactured in Germany, CHEM C2000 reflects more than a century of Kosmos expertise in publishing science experiment kits. It complies with all applicable US consumer product safety regulations and meets the more rigorous European EN 71-4 standard for chemistry experiment kits. The kit is a Parents' Choice Silver Award winner. Safety rules, first-aid information, GHS hazard labeling on every chemical, and clear waste-disposal guidance are integrated throughout the manual. CHEM C2000 is recommended for ages 11 and up, with adult supervision required. Whether you're homeschooling, supplementing a school curriculum, or simply nurturing a passion for science, this is the chemistry set that takes a curious kid from kitchen experiments to real laboratory technique.
