Lab 1 -Measuring pH LevelsYou will be conducting lab and field tests to determine pH levels of collected samples. Enter the Lab through thethird item ineach Unit’s MUSEand proceed toUnit 1. The MUSE can be accessed by clicking on Learning Materials. Use all available resources in your lab environment as well as the provided course materials and web resources to complete your lab report.

In your lab this phase you will be testing the pH levels of various samples before going into the field to apply your findings.
Clickhereto access this online module that lets you test pH levels to determine whether each substance is acidic basic or neutral.
Clickherefor a more advanced chemistry module that lets you see how strong and weak acids differ from one another. You can test the pH levels of solutions in other ways as well including measuring the conductivity. You can also determine how strength and concentration affect pH levels.
