What a Tangled Web (re J. Chem. Educ. 1996, 73, 1007)
A. C. Hall
6231 Tremont Street, Dallas, TX 75214
Cover
August 1997
Vol. 74 No. 8
p. 880
Full Text
If Michael Laing has his way: "Bring Back Equivalent Weight–If You Want the Kids To 'Think'!" (J. Chem. Educ. 1996, 73, 1007), introductory chemistry students will gain a much better understanding of what atomic and molecular weights are all about than they do now from half-baked invocations of mass spectrometry. But he's wrong in one detail. "Oh, what a tangled web we weave" is from Sir Walter Scott (Marmion), not Shakespeare.
