Joye, Donald D. – Chemical Engineering Education, 1985
Describes a semester-long project in which students designed, built, and operated an apparatus to separate particles by fluidization principles. Each laboratory group worked on a separate step of the design in a sequence selected by the instructor in a manner similar to the way a design team might function. (JN)

Afacan, Artin; Masliyah, Jacob – Chemical Engineering Education, 1984
Describes a drying experiment useful in presenting the concept of simultaneous heat and mass transfer. Background information, equipment requirements, experimental procedures, and results are provided. The reasonably good agreement in the calculated rate of drying and that observed experimentally makes students feel confident in applying…

Beasley, Charles A.; And Others – Engineering Education, 1990
Describes a technique for using lecture-laboratory facilities and faculty office facilities to provide students a site for intensive laboratory exercises. Provides a layout of the lecture-laboratory facilities and energy systems of the facilities. Presents an instructional example on the concept of the natural frequency of single-degree-of-freedom…

Swami, Piyush; Singh, Karan – Science Teacher, 1985
Indicates that the most dangerous laboratory hazards are the least dramatic ones and that hazardous chemicals are often used in laboratories without proper precautions. Selected sources of information essential for secondary schools and recommendations for safe practices and chemical use statistics from a study of Ohio high schools are given. (DH)

Cronin-Jones, Linda L. – Science Teacher, 1990
Described is a demonstration science laboratory at the University of Florida. Discussed is laboratory design, including instructional space, lab stations, sink areas, safety areas, and a storage and distribution area. The impact of this type of design is cited. Diagrams and photographs are included. (CW)

Clifford, Ben; Ochiai, E. I. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1980
Described is a diffusion apparatus to be used in an undergraduate physical chemistry laboratory experiment to determine the diffusion coefficients of aqueous solutions of sucrose and potassium dichromate. Included is the principle of the method, apparatus design and description, and experimental procedure. (Author/DS)
Descriptors: Chemistry, College Science, Diffusion, Higher Education

Barnett, Sarah M.; Mason, Nigel J. – Physics Education, 1990
Describes some experiments for investigating the speed of atomic gas beams and displaying their atomic character. Discusses the experimental apparatus and the time-of-flight method. (YP)

Lessard, George M. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1980
Described is an experiment used in an undergraduate biochemistry laboratory involving inducing rickets in chicks and correlating the disease to a reduction in vitamin D-dependent calcium binding protein. Techniques involved are hormone induction, protein isolation, and radioisotope methodology. (Author/DS)
Descriptors: Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, College Science

Bretherick, Leslie – Journal of Chemical Education, 1990
Discussed are accidents that occur in the laboratories of highly trained chemists. Four examples are provided to illustrate potential hazards that are often overlooked in chemistry laboratories, molten inorganic salt baths, the reaction of acetone and hydrogen peroxide, halogenated acetylene compounds, and the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and…

Dannhauser, Walter – Journal of Chemical Education, 1980
Described is an experiment designed to provide an experimental basis for a unifying point of view (utilizing theoretical framework and chemistry laboratory experiments) for physical chemistry students. Three experiments are described: phase equilibrium, chemical equilibrium, and a test of the third law of thermodynamics. (Author/DS)

Guenther, W. B. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1988
Offers challenging work at a higher level of technique than most students meet in elementary laboratory work. Uses a combined weight and volumetric sequence not shown in textbooks. Notes modern rapid balances help lower evaporation loss during weighings. Discusses the balance, weights, and buoyancy considerations. (MVL)
Descriptors: Chemical Analysis, Chemical Reactions, Chemistry, College Science

Zanger, Murray; McKee, James R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1988
Notes that this experiment takes safety and noncarcinogenic reactants into account. Demonstrates the use of diazonium salts for the replacement of an aromatic amine group by a phenolic hydroxyl. Involves two pleasant-smelling organic compounds, methyl anthranilate (grape) and methyl salicylate (oil of wintergreen). (MVL)
