I think you can get most of them from your friendly local walmart. I'm not sure where to get pH strips or HCl, though. Maybe your science teacher?

I think you can probably get them in science kits and stuff. But it would probably be easier to get them from your teacher.

Does anybody have a good way to memorize the uses of the chemicals?

I think someone said before...make a chart and just memorize the chart. Or really just practice it a lot and soon you will remember it. You could put it on index cards.

Or you could just go here: Science Crime Busters Wiki. It's got tables all ready to copy...I mean, use to help you study. I would still do all the trials yourself, just to see if there are any inaccuracies or missed info.

That's probably a lot easier.

The common name for HC1 is Muriatic Acid. You can find it at walmart.
