Peer reviewedSpring, R. J. – Education in Chemistry, 1975
Discusses the work of Lecoq de Boisbaudran, who established the identity of gallium in 1875 by applying his knowledge of spectroscopy to the elucidation of atomic weights and atomic properties. (MLH)
Descriptors: Atomic Structure, Atomic Theory, Biographies, Chemistry
Peer reviewedAllsop, R. T. – Education in Chemistry, 1973
Discusses the controversy about the discovery of element 72, involving Urbain's isolation of celtium, Dauvillier's reexamination of celtium samples, and Coster and Hevesy's announcement of the existence of hafnium. Indicates that the Copenhagen workers are finally accredited for the element discovery in their x-ray spectral studies. (CC)

Peer reviewedDronsfield, A. T. – Education in Chemistry, 1975
Suggests replacing traditional organic chemistry laboratory exercises with experiments involving an elementary research approach. The student is provided with short laboratory projects, normally involving simple reactants and products; it is an important criterion that the reactions chosen are not normally featured in student textbooks. (MLH)
