Environmental Chemistry: Acid Rain, Weathering & Erosion Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Environmental Chemistry: Acid Rain, Weathering & Erosion (Product Code: SLE/CH/127) is a class activity kit in which students expose naturally occurring and construction materials to an acidic environment and compare them with matching samples left in ‘normal’ rain, represented by tap water. With sufficient materials for 15 groups plus a teacher’s manual and student copy masters, it gives teachers a ready-made environmental science kit for school chemistry, geography and environmental studies lessons. The kit is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Key Details

Typical Use

Acid rain can be devastating to aquatic ecosystems and to land, and it attacks not only natural surfaces such as the exposed rock of mountainous regions but also the stones and metals used in buildings, statues and monuments. In this activity each group sets up paired samples, one in the acidic solution and one in tap water, and then records what changes: fizzing, discolouration, pitting or crumbling of the surface. Because weathering and erosion speed up sharply as rain becomes more acidic, comparing the two sets gives students direct evidence for a process that normally takes years outdoors.

For a fair test, ask groups to note each sample’s appearance before the start and to keep the containers side by side at the same temperature. The results link naturally to lessons on acids and carbonates, to geography units on rock weathering, and to class discussions on why carved stone on older buildings wears away faster in polluted cities, making the kit a useful earth science kit in India as well as a chemistry resource.

Useful additions when planning an environmental chemistry unit around this kit:

• Paper, Universal, pH 1-14 — lets students measure how acidic their ‘rain’ is compared with tap water
• Class Rock Pack — additional rock specimens for extending the weathering comparison
• Environmental Chemistry: Nitrates, Phosphates & Eutrophication — a companion activity on nutrient pollution of fresh water
• Environmental Chemistry: Water Treatment & Filtration — completes the unit with how polluted water is cleaned
• Safety Goggles — eye protection while students handle acidic solutions

Frequently Asked Questions

How many groups can use one kit?
Fifteen. The kit contains sufficient materials for 15 groups, so a typical class can work in small teams at the same time.

Which materials do students test?
Naturally occurring materials and construction materials. The individual sample list is not given on this page; ask us via the contact page if you need it for lesson planning.

What is used as the control?
Tap water stands in for ‘normal’ rain, so students can compare each acid-exposed sample with an identical one in ordinary water.

Is teacher support included?
Yes. A teacher’s manual and student copy masters come with the kit.

Which subjects does the activity support?
Chemistry (acids and their reactions), geography and earth science (weathering and erosion) and environmental studies (air pollution and its effects on buildings and ecosystems).

What should a school quotation request include?
The product code SLE/CH/127, the number of kits, the delivery address and any vendor documents your tender requires. We supply institutions in India and international markets.
