Make-A-Gas Kits: Hydrogen

SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS/PROCESSES

• Prepare and collect hydrogen
• Chemically identify hydrogen
• Determine the density of hydrogen
• Study hydrogen and how it supports burning

The reaction in the charge cartridge of mossy zinc and a dilute solution of hydrochloric acid causes hydrogen to be produced using this Make-A-Gas® Generator. After collecting the gas, students perform several activities to study both the physical and chemical characteristics of hydrogen.
