The Chemistry Department, FMIPA, Tanjungpura University held an Open Lab to commemorate the 16th anniversary of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Tanjungpura University. This activity aims to introduce all FMIPA Untan residents and high school students in the city of Pontianak to the profile of the chemistry department laboratory and its research products. In this activity, the Chemistry Department presented several types of practicum that are usually carried out by chemistry students, including Acid Base Titration and Making Hydrogen Gas from Aluminum Foil as well as research products in the form of Tengkawang Oil and Tengkawang Soap.
The visiting high school students looked very enthusiastic about this activity, as seen from the large number of students who wanted to try doing practical work on acid-base titrations and making hydrogen gas. The hope is that this activity will increase the interest of high school students in the field of chemistry so that they can change their mindset towards the words "CHEMISTRY IS DIFFICULT" to "CHEMISTRY IS FUN".
