Technetium: The First Radioelement on the Periodic Table
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Johnstone, Erik V.; Yates, Mary Anne; Poineau, Frederic; Sattelberger, Alfred P.; Czerwinski, Kenneth R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2017
The radioactive nature of technetium is discussed using a combination of introductory nuclear physics concepts and empirical trends observed in the chart of the nuclides and the periodic table of the elements. Trends such as the enhanced stability of nucleon pairs, magic numbers, and Mattauch's rule are described. The concepts of nuclear binding…

The Chemistry of Lightsticks: Demonstrations to Illustrate Chemical Processes
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Kuntzleman, Thomas Scott; Rohrer, Kristen; Schultz, Emeric – Journal of Chemical Education, 2012
Lightsticks, or glowsticks as they are sometimes called, are perhaps the chemist's quintessential toy. Because they are easy to activate and appealing to observe, experimenting with lightsticks provides a great way to get young people interested in science. Thus, we have used lightsticks to teach chemical concepts in a variety of outreach settings…
