What is the pH of your tap water? Is there variation between pH values across Enid? While we answer these questions, each of you will learn how to use the LaMotte chemical test and Vernier probes to determine pH. Both will be modeled to demonstrate how to do them. You will also be expected to share your results by entering the results into the form Enid Community pH where all students can then answer the question Is there variation between pH values across Enid? by comparing results online.
