Crystal Growing

Grow dozens of dazzling crystals and conduct 15 illuminating experiments with this classic science kit. Experiment with four chemically different crystals, each with different properties. Mold fun plaster shapes, including stars, lightning bolts, dolphins and pyramids and grow layers of crystals on them. Use dyes to form colored crystals and mix the dyes. Measure how the crystallization of solids out of a solution, and the dissolution of crystals back into solution, affect the temperature of the solution. Learn about the energy of crystallization. Investigate solutions, crystallization, and the chemistry of crystal growing. Learn about the structures and geometries of different crystals shapes. A full-color 32-page experiment manual guides your experiments in crystal chemistry and Earth science
