Next Wizards @ Western, 'Green Chemistry,' set for March 10
How do fuel cells and electric cars operate? How can industrial reactions be designed to use less energy and more environmentally friendly materials? Chemistry faculty members Steven Emory and Elizabeth Raymond will explore these questions using a series of dramatic chemical demonstrations combined with scientific explanations designed for children in grades 4-8. The faculty members will be assisted by members of WWU's student chapter of the American Chemical Society.
