JCE DigiDemos: Tested Demonstrations
Low-Voltage Conductivity Device. Editor's Note about Using Conductivity Devices in Nonaqueous Solutions
Ed Vitz and Melissa Kistler
Department of Chemistry, Kutztown University, Kutztown, PA 19530

Cover
January 2004
Vol. 81 No. 1
p. 63

Full Text
A conductivity demonstration device is described which operates on 12V and yet will illuminate a bulb brightly enough for use in a lecture hall, even when used with solutions of low conductivity, such as those described in "Using Conductivity Devices in Nonaqueous Solutions I: Demonstrating the SN1 Mechanism" by Thomas A. Newton and Beth Ann Hill, and "Using Conductivity Devices in Nonaqueous Solutions II: Demonstrating the SN2 Mechanism" by the same authors. The features of various available conductivity devices are compared.

Chemistry Teacher Connection

The "Chemistry Teacher Connection" (CTC) is especially for high school chemistry teachers. For only $40/year, it offers an online-only subscription to CLIC along with membership in the Division of Chemical Education, normally $65/year. CTC subscribers receive access to all articles and supplements from 1996 through the current issue.


C&EN CLICs

Through special arrangement with the ACS, JCE High School CLIC is now able to provide subscribers with online access to Chemical & Engineering News articles that have been selected specifically for secondary science instructors and their students. 


JCE Collections Available
Occasionally, collections of JCE back issues become available for donation to individual teachers, schools, or libraries. JCE matches collections with interested recipients. Recipients pay shipping costs or pick up the collection.
