Thayer, John S. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1977
Discusses the biocidal/toxicological applications of organo derivatives of true metals. (SL)
Descriptors: Chemical Reactions, Chemistry, College Science, Higher Education

Glicksman, H. D.; Walton, R. A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1977
Describes laboratory experiments illustrating the multiple metal-metal bond systems suitable for undergraduate level lecture courses. (SL)
Descriptors: Chemical Bonding, Chemical Reactions, Chemistry, College Science

John, Gareth D. – School Science Review, 1980
Describes the use and handling of alkali metals in school laboratories and seeks to reexamine precautions which one may reasonably take before executing routine procedures since their use, even by skillful teachers, occasionally results in accidents in the form of violent explosions. (Author/SK)

Foster, N.; And Others – Journal of Chemical Education, 1985
Describes an experiment in which students use ion exchange chromatography to separate a mixture of chloro complexes of transition metal ions and then use spectrophotometry to define qualitatively the efficiency of the ion exchange columns. Background information, materials needed, and procedures used are included. (JN)
Descriptors: Chemistry, Chromatography, College Science, Higher Education

Greenaway, A. M.; Trail, L. E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1983
Describes an experiment in which students: (1) synthesize tris(acetylacetonato)iron(III), tris(diethyldithiocarbamato)iron(III), and chlorobis(diethyldithiocarbmamato)iron(III); (2) are given a sample of potassium hexocyanoferrate(III); and (3) are then asked to measure the room temperature of these samples using the Guoy technique. Background…

Lash, Timothy D.; Berry, Donna – Journal of Chemical Education, 1985
Experiments involving the coupling of alkyl and aryl halides in the presence of lithium metal and ultrasound are described. The experiments illustrate classical Wurtz and Fittig reactions in addition to being a convenient application of organic sonochemistry. (JN)
Descriptors: Chemical Reactions, College Science, Higher Education, Metals

Glidewell, Christopher; And Others – Journal of Chemical Education, 1985
Background information, materials needed, procedures used, and typical results obtained, are provided for an experiment on iron-sulfur-carbonyl and -nitrosyl complexes. The experiment involved (1) use of inert atmospheric techniques and thin-layer and flexible-column chromatography and (2) interpretation of infrared, hydrogen and carbon-13 nuclear…

Rayner-Canham, Geoff – Journal of College Science Teaching, 1982
Three experiments are described to remedy a deficiency in descriptive chemistry content in introductory courses. Experiments focus on properties of metals, nonmetals, and gases. (JN)
Descriptors: Chemistry, College Science, Higher Education, Matter

Nechamkin, Howard – Science Teacher, 1975

Hewson, Peter W. – Physics Teacher, 1975
Descriptors: Chemistry, Experiments, Instruction, Metallurgy

Ophadt, Charles E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1974
The design of a freshman chemistry laboratory program involving nontraditional qualitative investigations of metal ion properties is explained. Experiments are discussed which focus on synthesis of a metal salt, properties of metal ions and their separations, and oxidation states of metals. (DT)

Gilbert, George L., Ed. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1985
Background information, procedures, and typical results obtained are provided for two demonstrations. The first involves the colorful complexes of copper(II). The second involves reverse-phase separation of Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD & C) dyes using a solvent gradient. (JN)
Descriptors: Chemical Analysis, Chemistry, College Science, Demonstrations (Educational)

Rich, Ronald L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1984
Presents an outline of group separations for a nonhydrogen sulfide analytical scheme applicable to all metallic elements (Bromide scheme). Also presents another outline of an abbreviated and modified version (Iodide scheme) designed for emphasis on nutritionally important metals, with special attention to 10 cations. (JM)
