Metal Etching in 8th Grade Science Class?
by Jill Luckey.
(Beaufort, SC)
I’m a science teacher and I have my 8th grade students doing various projects about acids and bases.
Acid metal etching jewelry looked interesting to a group and I am trying to determine if it is something they could do.
I have a stock room of chemicals and could possibly make ferric chloride solution and I have nitric acid.
Any suggestions or is this a difficult undertaking? Thanks!!
