    Chemicals are mixing and reacting with one another all around people everyday. In Lab 10 of Chem 115, students will work with a variety of different chemicals to see the effect they have on one another to produce a reaction. This lab will illustrate to students the importance of every detail of an experiment through either success or failure. Depending on the precision of the students, they will either see a reaction or have nothing happen at all. Through this lab, students will learn that the amount and characteristics of each chemical effects how it reacts with other chemicals. They will also learn that the order in which the chemicals are mixed will change the ending reaction.…

    Sustainable Chemistry

    • 29 Pages

    Chemistry has an important role to play in achieving a sustainable civilization on Earth. The present economy remains utterly dependent on a massive inward flow of natural resources that includes vast amounts of nonrenewables. This is followed by a reverse flow of economically spent matter back to the ecosphere. Chemical sustainability problems are determined largely by these economy-ecosphere materials flows (see the figure, below), which current chemistry education essentially ignores. It has become an…
