SOIL: Physicochemical Properties

SOIL: Physicochemical Properties — Educational Experiment Kit

Introducing a comprehensive set of 7 experiments with an instructor guide (from theory to conclusions) and essential laboratory equipment (graduated cylinders, beakers, flasks, a pipette, forceps, vials, funnels, a sieve, filter papers, magnifying loupes, a double-ended spatula, and a soil scoop) plus an indicator solution with a colorimetric scale. Through simple yet engaging experiments, the kit introduces the basic physicochemical properties of soil, including mineral composition, primary soil fractions, crumb structure of the soil, moisture, filtration capacity and water-holding capacity of the soil, soil pH, and physical sorption of soils. The included worksheets can be photocopied. The experiments contained in this set are part of SOIL – experimental kit with laboratory equipment and worksheets.
