Determination of the Formula of a Hydrate: A Greener AlternativeMarc A. Klingshirn, Allison F. Wyatt, Robert M. Hanson, and Gary O. Spessard This article describes how the principles of green chemistry were applied to a first-semester, general chemistry courses, specifically in relation to the determination of the formula of a copper hydrate salt that changes color when dehydrated and is easily rehydrated with steam. Klingshirn, Marc A.; Wyatt, Allison F.; Hanson, Robert M.; Spessard, Gary O. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 819.

The Empirical Formula of Silver SulfideCarlos Alexander Trujillo An experiment is described that allows students to experimentally determine an empirical formula for silver sulfide. At elevated temperatures, silver sulfide reacts in air to form silver, silver sulfate, and sulfur dioxide. At higher temperatures (~960C) silver sulfate decomposes to produce metallic silver.
