Hydrogen + Chlorine Cannon When a corked test tube containing a mixture of hydrogen and chlorine is struck by light from a burning magnesium ribbon, the resulting explosion propels the cork out of the test tube.
Catalytic converters are used in automobiles to convert pollutants in engine emissions to benign products. Catalytic converters in today's automobiles are made of a porous ceramic brick that has been coated with catalysts, additives, stabilizers, and support materials. Corning has developed bricks that have very thin-walled channels with 600 channels per square inch. Which of the following research goals did they target?

Kinetic Analysis of Amylase Using Quantitative Benedict's and Iodine Starch ReagentsBeverly Cochran, Deborah Lunday, and Frank Miskevich This laboratory emphasizes that enzymes mediate the conversion of a substrate into a product and that either the concentration of product or reactant may be used to follow the course of a reaction. It does so by using an inexpensive scanner and open-source image analysis software to quantify amylase activity through the breakdown of starch and the appearance of glucose. Cochran, Beverly; Lunday, Deborah; Miskevich, Frank. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 401.

Cannon (GCMP)David M. Whisnant H2 and Cl2 cannon: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". In this problem we observe the reaction of hydrogen and chlorine and explore some related reactions. The reaction involves a radical mechanism initiated by light. 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.
