Morgan I. D. Johnson; Lavinia Mbongo; Amy J. Managh – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
An ICP-MS simulation was developed to support the teaching of inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. The app enables students to conduct the quantification of selenium in a nutritional supplement, monitor the uptake of metallodrugs by cells, and perform qualitative analysis of gunshot residue. The experiments teach a range of analytical…

Jacob S. Hirschi; Dayana Bashirova; Tim J. Zuehlsdorff – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Density functional theory (DFT) is indubitably the most popular and among the most successful approaches for approximately solving the many-electron Schro¨dinger equation. The level of understanding on the part of both researchers and students using DFT, however, is lacking, given the availability of black-box software. The present work addresses…
