Activity 1: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

pH Scale - My Solution

Design your own liquid and directly manipulate pH or ion concentration. Explore the relative number of hydroxide ions and hydronium ions in your solution. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 2: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

pH Scale - Micro

Visualize the relative number of hydroxide ions and hydronium ions in a solution of everyday liquids, and switch between logarithmic and linear scales. Investigate whether changing the volume or diluting with water affects the pH. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 3: Question Game. Estimated duration: 14 min

The Drought

In this game, you are a worker employed to fix a drought on extraterrestrial planet C-DER II. You will control multiple robotic drones, which you will employ to fill the soil pH, moisture, aeration, and nutrient content. Every time you use a drone, it will cost credits. When you run out of credits, you can answer multiple-choice questions to earn more. Grow three plants successfully on C-DER II to win!

Activity 4: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

pH Scale - Macro

Explore the pH of everyday liquids such as coffee, spit, and soap to determine whether each is acidic, basic, or neutral. Investigate how adding more of a liquid or diluting it with water affects pH. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.
