Glass, one of the most important materials, is a solidified melt of metal oxides and silica. In this experiment students manufacture glass in a simple manner by melting a mixture of calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate and silica sand.
Learning objectives
- How to prepare glass out of metal oxides and silica sand
Benefits
- Easy teaching and efficient learning by using interactive experimentation PHYWE-Software
- Experiment is part of a complete solution set with experiments for all Inorganic Chemistry matched with international curriculum: all topics are covered
