Conflicting views have been put forward on the derivation of the distribution of solubilized molecules among micelles. This stems from failure to consider the arrangement of the solubilized molecules in the micelles. In the treatment presented enthalpy effects are ignored as they are not amenable to a simple general theory. (Author/BB)

Discusses some current research on hemoproteins, describes the process of metal replacement in hemoproteins, and reviews the preparation of cobaltmyoglobin. (MLH)

Briefly discusses Alfred Werner's discovery of the coordination theory of inorganic chemistry. (MLH)

Describes computer programs and projects designed to assist the chemical researcher in solving problems on-line. Discusses programs that interpret molecular structures, analyze multivariant data, and generate structural isomers of compounds. (MLH)

Defines learning and memory and presents experimental evidence that indicates that learning and memory are chemical in nature. (JR)

Summarizes the recommendations made by the Panel on Chemical and Health of the President's Science Advisory Committee. Indicates the need of research in the biological effect of chemicals and a scientific flexibility rather than legal rigidity in their regulation. (CC)

Describes the present status of science as an industrialized-affluent culture resting upon a public woefully lacking in scientific background and scientists with activities taken in by nihilism. Suggests all scientists actively work together through teaching, talk, and behavior to counter the forces of anti-science and nihilism. (CC)

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)

Summarizes research studies made early in this century in the fields of cellulose, starch, proteins, and rubber. Included is a description of factors which give rise to the concept of very long, chain-like molecules. (CC)

A new method of copper analysis is presented which is more reliable, when used by students, than the IUPAC recommended spectral method, and the electrode is suitable for the copper assay of mains tap water, soft drinks, urine, and blood. (DF)
