Education Edition enables chemistry features. It also introduces new blocks: the element blocks, and the chemistry blocks: Lab table, compound creator, material reducer, and element constructor. It also allows for custom crafts (which is very neat, by the way), such as the balloon, bleach, glow sticks, etc.
