Hello
I would really appreciate if someone could help me find a topic to do a lab relating chemistry and a forest (anything forest related). There will be about 6-7 hours to do the actual lab on the day, and the level is 2nd year of High School chemistry (we are doing acids/bases, equilibrium etc), so nothing too complex or that can't be done within the time.
My teacher told me that there needs to be purpose to the experiment, something that I'm trying to find out. (I asked about dipping leaves in acid and noting the result and he said no because there doesn't seem to be a purpose..)
So could anyone please somehow relate any kind of forest to chemistry, and come up with an experiment? Thanks a LOT!
