Fractional Distillation of Air and Other Demonstrations with Condensed Gases Maria Oliver-Hoyo and William L. Switzer, III
This demonstration builds upon the commonly performed liquefaction of air not only to show the presence of nitrogen and oxygen, but also the presence of two other components, carbon dioxide and water. Several extensions are suggested: one to show boiling point elevation in solution and another to show the elevation of both boiling point and sublimation point with pressure. No special apparatus is required permitting presentations to audiences in a variety of settings. These demonstrations give the opportunity to discuss properties of gases, solution chemistry, and phase equilibria.

A Novel Experiment for Fast and Simple Determination of the Oxygen Content in the Air Metodija Najdoski and Vladimir M. Petrusevski
The reaction between nitric oxide (NO) and oxygen is used for determination of the oxygen content in the air. The nitrogen dioxide thus produced is dissolved in water. The volume decrease of the gas enables quick and accurate enough determination of the O2 content. The results of 20 measurements give %O2 = 21.04 0.63.

Global Metabolism of Elements: Principles and Applications in Bioinorganic Chemistry - XI Ei-Ichiro Ochiai
The biosphere, as its members metabolize the elements, can thus contribute to the overall global geocycling of elements. A diagram is used to indicate several different manners of the contribution and their extents of contribution to the geoprocesses. This overall process incorporating the effects of the biosphere is termed here as "global metabolism" and is illustrated for iron, mercury and arsenic.
