Peer reviewedSeen, Andrew J. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2004
An upper-level undergraduate experiment that, in addition to introducing students to catalysis using an air sensitive transition-metal complex, introduces the use of a solid acid as an activator and support for the catalyst is developed. The increased stability acquired in the course of the process affords the opportunity to characterize the…

Peer reviewedMyrick, M. L.; Colavita, P. E.; Greer, A. E.; Long, B.; Andreatta, D. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2004
The measurement of the infrared rotation-vibration spectrum of HCl(g) is a common experiment in the physical chemistry laboratory, which allows students the opportunity to explore quantization of rotational states in diatomic molecules. It is found that the CO2 vibration-rotation spectrum if used as an addition to the HCl experiment would give the…
