"As Simple as Possible, but Not Simpler"—The Case of Dehydroascorbic AcidRobert C. Kerber Textbooks routinely assign dehydroascorbic acid a tricarbonyl structure that is highly improbable in aqueous solution and inconsistent with its colorless appearance. Studies of oxidized forms of ascorbic acid are summarized here, and a plea is entered for accurate descriptions of chemical structures in this and other cases, even at the cost of some simplicity. Kerber, Robert C. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1237.

The Role of Water Chemistry in Marine Aquarium Design: A Model System for a General Chemistry ClassJeffrey J. Keaffaber, Ramiro Palma, and Kathryn R. Williams Water chemistry is central to aquarium design, and it provides many potential applications for discussion in undergraduate chemistry and engineering courses. This article uses a hypothetical tank to house ocean sunfish as a model to show students the calculations and other considerations that are needed when designing a marine aquarium. Keaffaber, Jeffrey J.; Palma, Ramiro; Williams, Kathryn R. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 225.

Chemical Aspects of General Anesthesia: Part II. Current PracticesRobert Brunsvold and Daryl L. Ostercamp With the basic elements of balanced general anesthesia in place by the 1950s, the focus turned to developing safer and more effective agents and to improving procedures. During the last half-century a new generation of intravenous induction anesthetics, inhalational anesthetics, and muscle relaxants has emerged. Brunsvold, Robert; Ostercamp, Daryl L. J. Chem. Educ.2006, 83, 1826.
