Purple Haze Chemistry Experiment

A cloud of curiosity rose at Ankuran Science Center as students witnessed the fascinating Purple Haze Experiment using aluminium powder and iodine crystals.

Through this exciting chemistry demonstration, students observed how chemical reactions can produce visible changes, heat, vapour, and dramatic colour effects. The appearance of purple iodine vapour made the session truly memorable and helped students connect classroom chemistry with real-life observation.

At Ankuran, we believe science becomes meaningful when students see, question, observe, and understand.

Safety Note: This experiment was performed only under expert supervision with proper safety precautions.

🌿 Learning Beyond Classrooms | Ankuran Foundation at Gosaidanga Village 🌿

Teachers from Ankuran Foundation visited Gosaidanga Village to conduct an interactive science session with tribal students on Dicot and Monocot Plants.

Through real plant samples, observation, and discussion, students learned how to identify important characteristics such as:

🌱 Number of seed leaves
🌿 Leaf venation pattern
🌾 Root system
🌸 Floral parts
🌻 Examples from their surroundings

The session helped students connect textbook biology with plants they see in daily life. At Ankuran, we believe that science becomes meaningful when children can see, touch, observe, ask, and explore.

💚 Taking science to every child, every community.
