Water – A Chemical solutionA Chemical solution A Global Experiment?

Experiments on Earths´most critical resource The results are reported to a global databaseglobal database 1.pH of the planet 2.No dirt, no germs 3.Salty waters 4.Solar still In English – In Swedish – under Kemins År

About the project  The tasks have been chosen by personnel from schools,universities, industrial research and representatives of IUPAC, UNESCO and the Royal Society of Chemistry.  The material can be adopted to suit the needs and requirements of your school  There are some practical issues to be considered  You will be able to try out some of the steps at this work-shop
