Taman kimia

Taman kimia saat bertumbuh

Taman kimia adalah sebuah eksperimen dalam bidang kimia yang biasanya dilakukan dengan menambahkan garam-garam metal, seperti tembaga sulfat atau kobalt(II) klorida, ke sebuah cairan sodium silikat (juga disebut kaca air). Ini menghasilkan pertumbuhan bentuk mirip tanaman dalam hitungan menit atau jam.^[1]^[2] ^[3] ^[4]

Taman kimia mula-mula diamati dan dideskripsikan oleh Johann Rudolf Glauber pada 1646.^[5]
