This is a college-level general chemistry experiment. (BB)

This experiment is designed to acquaint the student with a macromolecular synthesis of a crown ether type compound. The starting materials are readily available and the product, a cyclic polyether, belongs to a class of compounds that has aroused the interest of chemist and biologist alike. (Author/BB)

This undergraduate biochemistry experiment introduces the student to techniques for cell lysis and release of protein from the cell in soluble form, ion exchange and gel chromatography, and dialysis. (Author/BB)

This undergraduate experiment shows that the inclusion of an appropriate additive can have a very marked effect on the physical properties of a polymer. The polymer used is polypropylene and the additives are 2-hydroxy-4-octyloxy-benzophenone and benzophenone. (BB)

This experiment demonstrates the polarization properties of the transition moment, vibronic activity in an excited state, cyrogenic techniques, crystal site splitting, and the use of mixed crystals. (BB)

The theoretical basis for the calculation of hydration numbers is developed. (BB)

Describes an experiment suitable for an instrumental analysis or quantitative analysis course. (BB)

An ebullioscopic apparatus is described in which only the difference between the boiling point of the solution and that of the pure solvent is measured. This substantially reduces the cost of the apparatus and simplifies the operation, while maintaining precision. (BB)

This experiment can be used as either a demonstration or a laboratory activity illustrating the principles of affinity chromatography to purify an enzyme. (BB)

Presents part two on the use of the detection of thermoluminescence as an analytical tool for the chemistry laboratory and allied science. This part discusses instrumentation used and investigates recent developments in instrumentation for thermoluminescence. (HM)

Discusses fire safety and fire control in the chemistry laboratory. The combustion process, extinguishing equipment, extinguisher maintenance and location, and fire safety and practices are included. (HM)

Presents methods of illustrating the dynamics of spectroscopic transitions which reveal the quantum mechanical origin of oscillating transition moments and the characteristic resonance between the system and the radiation necessary for phase coherence during the creation or absorption of a photon. (Author/HM)

Presents a method for carrying out the desired reduction which eliminates all ambiguities and trial-and-error. This method, which works with any properly constructed representation of any of the continuous points groups, is based upon the cosine form of the character for the arbitrary rotation operation. (HM)

Presents a diagram that illustrates the epimeric and other isomeric relationships that exist among the aldohexoses. (HM)

Surveys the current scene in computer graphics from the point of view of a chemistry educator. Discusses the scope of current applications of computer graphics in chemical education, and provides information about hardware and software systems to promote communication with vendors of computer graphics equipment.
