NEW! Chemistry Comes Alive! Volume 8: Waves, Particles, and Chemistry
“OK, I can see waves in a Slinky. You tell me that similar things happen in light waves. I can see that when light interacts with chemicals some cool things can happen. But, I can’t see the connection.” For many students there is a large disconnect between the models of waves we show them and the phenomena that we explain using those wave models. How can we constructively move our students’ understanding of waves from the mechanical models we show them to the chemical phenomena the waves explain? The video and images from Chemistry Comes Alive! (CCA!) Volume 8 can help.
A visual library containing more than 220 QuickTime movies and more than 2500 still images, Chemistry Comes Alive! Volume 8 features the kind of chemistry that is sure to spark an interest. Whether you browse through the table of contents or search with keywords, CCA! 8 makes it easy for you to find the movie or image you seek to add interest to your presentation. CCA! 8 covers a broad range of wave phenomena and spectacular chemical reactions while also offering chemical insight into commonly asked questions.

JCE CLIPs 2005
“Those MSDS sheets have too much information for me to slog through. I wish I could get summaries of the safety precautions that I need to take as a high school teacher.”
“I didn’t know that there were safety concerns with borax, glass wool, graphite, iron oxide, and sucrose. I wonder what I need to be concerned about in using these chemicals in my class or laboratory.”
“We use acetone, ammonia, citric acid, ethyl alcohol, glycerol, phenolphthalein, and potassium permanganate quite often in my lab. What should I tell my students about the precautions they need to take when handling these substances?”
Such statements about chemicals by high school teachers are common. There is so much to know and so little time to learn. Students, their parents, and the school administrators need to be convinced that it is safe to do chemistry in the laboratory. What is the answer?
Safety expert Jay Young has combined information from MSDS sheets with his many years of experience to produce a one-page Chemical Laboratory Information Profile (CLIP) for many of the chemicals that you are most likely to encounter in the laboratory. But the CLIPs remain distributed among the more than 50 issues in which they were published. So, we have compiled all 106 of these CLIPs published from April 2001 through July 2005 as PDF files on a single CD-ROM, JCE CLIPs.
