Potassium iodide, a chemical compound widely recognized for its pharmaceutical and industrial applications, plays a pivotal role in various fields. In medicine, it is notably utilized as a source of iodine, a vital nutrient essential for thyroid function. Potassium iodide is often prescribed to individuals with thyroid disorders or exposed to radiation as a protective measure against radioactive iodine uptake. Additionally, it finds utility in the manufacturing of photographic materials, where it serves as a key ingredient in light-sensitive emulsions. Furthermore, potassium iodide is employed in analytical chemistry as a reagent for detecting the presence of certain compounds, showcasing its versatility beyond medicinal and photographic realms. With its diverse uses and contributions to different industries, potassium iodide remains a valuable compound with widespread relevance in modern applications.
For many learners high school is not enough to prepare them for what they are to face at first year university. They find themselves completely overwhelmed and intimidated by what is expected of them to be able to do in a laboratory.
Unfortunately many learners who want to pursue science subjects go through this dilemma, few as they are because fact is SA is not producing enough learners who will become engineers, doctors, science researchers, let alone science innovators.
To address this, we developed a chemistry kits with 52 experiments for use by learners at home. This gives them an opportunity to gain hand-on exposure and engagement, confidence and understanding they need to study sciences further.
The kit comes with a manual explaining how science is experienced in daily life and therefore brings awareness of the application and usefulness of science, helping the learner relate to what they learn at school.
Some schools do have kits where only the teacher demonstrates the experiments and this is great, but you don’t master driving by watching the driving instructor, you must get in the driver’s seat yourself.
