About This Activity
This is a Spark Lab Experimental stream course and it is recommended students have a minimum overall average of 80–85% Step into the world of molecules in motion as you uncover how and why chemical reactions happen. In this hands-on, experiment-driven course, students will explore the science behind speeding up, slowing down, and measuring chemical change. From catalytic reactions that power everything from cells to industry, to the analytical tools scientists use to study them, participants will gain insight into the processes that shape our chemical world. Throughout the week, students will investigate reaction rates, test the power of different catalysts, perform chemiluminescence experiments, and experiment with core analytical techniques such as colorimetry, chromatography, titration, and quantitative data analysis. Working in York University’s laboratories, students will learn how chemists design experiments, collect high‑quality data, interpret results, and use evidence to explain the behaviour of chemical systems.
