A Chemistry Minute: Recognizing Chemistry in Our Daily LivesDianne J. Luning Prak and Christine L. Copper Students in first- and second-semester general chemistry increase their awareness of the relevance of the subject to their daily lives by making a two-minute presentation on a chemistry-related topic. This exercise gives students an opportunity to think about chemistry taking place around them and can provide new applications for instructors to use in future classes. Luning Prak, Dianne J.; Copper, Christine L. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1368.

High Performance Chemistry: Scientists in the Fast LaneTimothy Ruppel and Joseph Turpin The scientists involved with open wheel automobile racing range from physicians to chemists to physicists to engineers who are usually classically trained but perform their activities in an atypical fashion. This article discusses Indy cars, fuel and oil testing, the challenges that drivers face, and safety measures. Ruppel, Timothy; Turpin, Joseph. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1316.
Phlogiston (GCMP)David M. Whisnant Phlogiston: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". In this problem we will think back to the last half of the 18th century when modern chemistry was beginning to take place. One of the major problems occupying chemists at the time was combustion. The dominant theory of combustion in the mid-18th century involved a substance called "phlogiston." General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.
