Griselda L. Sosa; Guido E. Deluchi; Silvana A. Rami´rez; Mariana Hamer – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Understanding potentiometry is a difficult task when students in initial courses of Analytical Chemistry are first introduced to instrumental techniques. The closest instrument to them is a pH meter, which is frequently used as a "black box", without a real understanding of how it works. Here we present the assembly of jelly modules that…

Lynn E. Krushinski; Thomas B. Clarke; Jeffrey E. Dick – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Electrochemistry plays a crucial role in our everyday lives. It allows us to power our phones and cars and allows for the real-time monitoring of blood glucose levels. While electrochemistry is of vital importance and is a long-established field of chemistry, it is often neglected in modern curricula for STEM courses. Herein, we show that hands-on…
