What caused a massive fish kill at Mirror Lake? Join Vernier chemistry experts Nüs Hisim and Melissa Hill, PhD, as they guide you through a real-world environmental forensic chemistry investigation using pH sensors. Learn how your high school students can safely generate and analyze non-metal oxide gases to explore acid formation in natural waters—and connect chemical reactions to ecological impacts in a hands-on, memorable way.

You will

✔ Learn practical techniques for safely generating and testing CO2, SO2, and NO2 gases using the microscale approach from our Forensic Chemistry Experiments lab book

✔ Get strategies for helping students connect chemical equations to relevant, real-world environmental scenarios

✔ Explore effective methods for guiding students from basic observations to quantitative analysis of acid concentrations using the Go Direct® pH sensor

✔ Find out how to incorporate real-world environmental forensics into your chemistry curriculum while reinforcing core concepts in acid-base chemistry
