Exothermic Reactions Classroom Kit

Feel Exothermic Reactions in Action! Let students discover the chemistry behind heat packs and hand warmers with this hands-on kit! By investigating an exothermic reaction and the oxidation of iron, students will explore how chemical energy is harnessed to create heat in cold environments—just like the warmers they’ve probably used before! Energy Transfer and Thermodynamics – Students will see how exothermic reactions release energy and learn how this process powers hand warmers and heat packs. Understanding chemical energy transfer is crucial to applied chemistry in batteries and many other chemical engineering applications. Investigate Temperature Change – Students observe the temperature shift during the reaction and connect it to real-life applications of chemical energy in winter. 15 Group Experiments – Enough materials for 15 groups to investigate and experience the power of oxidation and exothermic reactions. Teacher-Friendly – Includes a Teacher’s Manual and Student Study Guide for smooth, guided experiments and easy classroom integration.
