Acid Base: रंग और संतुलन | 31st Aug - Ep 8 - 3030 Eklavya

About the Episode:
Acids and bases go beyond textbooks — they shape our health, environment, and daily life. From the pH scale to the buffers that keep our body in balance, acid–base chemistry is central to nature’s design. In this week’s 3030 Eklavya episode, we’ll explore fun activities like lava lamps, rainbow fizz, droplet art, and cloth dyeing, before connecting them to bigger phenomena like acid rain, ocean acidification, and neutralisation. Discover how acid–base balance is the key to both life and nature’s equilibrium.

Topics Covered

Explore acids, bases, and buffers through experiments.
Create art and dye cloth using natural indicators.
Understand acid–base balance in health and the environment.
Examine the effects of acid rain and ocean acidification through simple demonstrations

For buffer experiment:
Take a pH 7 buffer capsule/powder and dissolve in DI water as mentioned in the instructions on the packet into a conical flask. Use normal DI water in another flask, and add 2-3 drops of universal indicator, so that both solutions become green. Then add 2-3 drops of 0.5M H2SO4 in both solutions and observe the colour change.

About Us

We came into being to nurture a scientific temperament among adults and children alike. Our journey began from an empty 400 sqft room, and today, 7 years later, we have a hall full of 1000+ unique STEM models and activities, created/curated / expanded by us. Having conducted over 200 STEM and hands-on learning workshops for over 20,000 teachers & professors and connected with over 500,000 students nationwide - our mission is to bring back the gleam in their eyes!
