Home experiments to promote the learning of mixtures in the subject of inorganic chemistry

Chemistry is an empirical science and as such experimental work in the laboratory (or even at home) must be part of the teaching-learning process. Favorably, Chemistry is a science that allows many simple experiments to be carried out using easily accessible substances and materials. This paper aimed to implement home experiments to promote the learning of mixtures in inorganic chemistry subject. The applied methodology was descriptive and qualitative research. According to the results found, it is mentioned that experimentation goes beyond observation, because it offers the possibility of studying natural phenomena in greater depth, giving way to curiosity as an essential part of this practice. In conclusion, experimental activities in the laboratory are a fundamental part of the teaching and learning of Chemistry. However, many times its implementation can be limited by factors such as the lack of materials and instruments.
