Sarah E. Shaner; Kari L. Stone – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
A Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) experiment appropriate for an upper-level undergraduate laboratory such as chemical instrumentation is described. Students collect FTIR spectra of four protio-solvents and their deuterated analogues. In addition to qualitatively observing C-H and O-H peaks shift to lower energy upon deuteration, students apply a…

Ambruso, Kelly; Riley, Kathryn R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
In this communication, we describe five at-home laboratory experiments and demonstrations that complement a semester-long analytical chemistry curriculum. The experiments were successfully carried out by remote undergraduate students enrolled in a hybrid analytical chemistry course during the COVID-19 pandemic. Students used their personal…

Bruce, Mitchell R. M.; Bruce, Alice E.; Bernard, Sarah E.; Bergeron, Andrew N.; Ahmad, Ahmad A. L.; Bruce, Timothy A.; Perera, Duwage C.; Pokhrel, Shyam; Saleh, Sfoog; Tyrina, Anna; Yaparatne, Sudheera – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
The development of a remote, synchronous general chemistry lab course, which was offered to 800 students in the fall semester of 2020, is described. The course was designed with similar curricular goals as our in-person lab course and featured chemistry kits developed by a team of faculty, staff, and graduate TAs. The kits, which were distributed…
