Sodium thiosulfate (Na₂S₂O₃) is an inorganic compound that appears as a colorless crystalline solid, typically found in its pentahydrate form (Na₂S₂O₃·5H₂O). It is highly soluble in water and has a wide range of applications. In the medical field, sodium thiosulfate is used as an antidote for cyanide poisoning. In photography, it serves as a fixer to dissolve unreacted silver halides from photographic films and prints. Additionally, it is utilized in water treatment to neutralize chlorine, in the textile industry for dechlorination, and in chemical analysis as a titrant in iodometry. Sodium thiosulfate is also employed in gold extraction processes and has various laboratory uses.

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.
