You are probably familiar with tailors, people who work with fabrics. They nd,
examine, dye, cut, sew, and stitch various fabrics together into all sorts of dierent
styles of clothing. Well, chemists are people who work with the “fabrics” of our
world. They explore the properties and transformations of materials. Of course, you
know that we’re not talking about actual fabrics or clothing materials here, but the
stu out of which everything that exists is composed.
All of these materials are what chemistry, the science of materials and transforming
them, is all about. With this kit, you too can perform transformations of materials
and chemical reactions like a professional in the laboratory. This kit includes
exciting experiments: sudden changes in color, hissing and bubbling gases, and
magical physics tricks with water and air. You will learn all about the seven chemical
substances contained in the cylindrical vials in the kit. Don’t be intimidated by their
complicated sounding names, like potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) — by the time you
are nished with this kit, you will know them all very well!
The scope of your explorations will by no means be limited to these seven chemicals.
No, your experiments integrate materials from your surroundings and your
environment as well. Accordingly, the informational boxes “Side Notes” and
“Technology and Environment” are provided in addition to the instructions for
the experiments in order to broaden your perspective.
One more note on the experiments: Oftentimes, several experiments
are collected into an “experiment section” with an explanation at
the end of the section. It is often best to do these experiments
together in one session.
Chem C1000 is nothing more and nothing less than a key
that opens the gate to the world of materials. Of course, to
conquer this world, considerable eort as well as a number
of special tools are required. For more than a few kids, the
explorations undertaken with an experiment kit have led
them to study chemistry later on and work in one of the
many elds of chemistry.
But even if you end up doing something
completely dierent — participating in
some way in the quest for solutions to our
environmental problems, for example — it can
be useful to have had a peek at the world of
materials. It will then be easier for you to form
your own scientic opinions and back them up
too.

What is chemistry?
“Oh dear, these aren’t the right fabrics for sewing!”
