Potassium nitrate, a compound with wide-ranging applications, plays a pivotal role in several industries. In agriculture, it serves as a valuable source of nitrogen, an essential nutrient for plant growth. Farmers use potassium nitrate as a fertilizer to enhance crop yield and quality. Additionally, it finds application in the manufacturing of fireworks and gunpowder due to its oxidizing properties. Potassium nitrate is also utilized in the food industry as a preservative, particularly in cured meats, where it inhibits bacterial growth and enhances flavor. Moreover, in the pharmaceutical sector, it is used in certain medications and oral care products for its antibacterial properties. With its diverse uses and contributions to different fields, potassium nitrate remains a versatile compound with significant 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.
