Description

Investigate the chemistry behind aspirin’s effects.
Aspirin is the most widely used over-the-counter
medication in the world. Do your students really know
what aspirin does? What it’s made of? How common
brands differ? Your class will answer these and other
questions as they perform a variety of tests on several
brands of aspirin. In the process, they’ll determine
each brand’s chemical effectiveness and composition
as well as the cost-benefit relationships between these
attributes.
