Any Suggestions for AP Chemistry Extra Credit Project?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

AP Chemistry students seeking extra credit can undertake projects such as constructing various types of batteries using different materials for electrolytes, cathodes, and anodes. Another viable option is to design a demonstration for Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) to analyze inks or plant pigments. Additionally, students can explore photometric titration as a method for quantitative analysis. These projects require significant effort and align with AP-level expectations.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of electrochemistry principles for battery construction
  • Familiarity with Thin Layer Chromatography techniques
  • Knowledge of photometric titration methods
  • Basic skills in experimental design and data analysis
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the construction and functioning of different types of batteries
  • Learn about Thin Layer Chromatography and its applications in chemistry
  • Explore photometric titration techniques and their analytical uses
  • Investigate project presentation methods suitable for AP Chemistry
USEFUL FOR

AP Chemistry students, educators looking for project ideas, and anyone interested in enhancing their understanding of practical chemistry applications.

I'm in AP Chemistry and I'd like to do an extra credit project for this marking period. My teacher welcomes all varieties of extra credit, from posters to videos to research papers to pictures of chemistry in the world, etc. Does anyone have any suggestions for a solid extra credit project that would definitely take effort and be at an AP-level?

Thank you in advance, I'm having so much trouble deciding what to do!

How about making different batteries, each using a different set of materials (electrolytes, cathodes, anodes); or design a simple exercise or demonstration for Thin Layer Chromatography for inks, or plant pigments? Maybe try a photometric titration?
