Validity test was done by 2 chemistry lecturers at FMIPA UNP, 1chemistry teacher at SMAN 7 Padang, 1 chemistry teachers at SMAN 12 Padang and 1chemistry teacher at SMAN 13 Padang. Practicality test was done by 2 chemistryteachers at SMAN 7 Padang, 1 chemistry teacher at SMAN 13 Padang and 27 XII MIPA5 SMAN 7 Padang students. The instrument was validity and practical questionnaire anddata was analyzed by Cohen Kappa formula. This study produced a buffer module basedon scientific approach with an average kappa moments 0,94 which is very high level ofvalidity.
