MSF@MOSI: Perfect chemistry

Chemistry

Remember Bunsen burners and the smell of gas when the pipe comes loose? That lovely stink of sulphur? The International Year of Chemistry 2011 is a worldwide celebration of the achievements of chemistry and its contributions to the well-being of humankind. Come along to MOSI’s chemistry family-fun day and try your hand at a whole host of exciting hands-on chemistry activities.

MOSI's very own science lab will also be opening its doors for a Chemistry Capers workshop. So why not don a lab coat and specs to try out some cool chemistry experiments for yourself!
