Exploring Bond Enthalpy by Breaking Rope Candy with a Luggage Scale
A novel teaching approach is aimed at elucidating the concept of bond enthalpy for general chemistry students. Through the integration of a hands-on candy pulling activity, students in a large lecture class were provided a tangible experience to explore bond strengths using rope candy and a luggage scale. Feedback from students indicated a clear appreciation for the demonstration of bond enthalpy, highlighting the effectiveness of the activity in enhancing comprehension. Furthermore, the involvement of undergraduate learning assistants (LAs) to plan and execute the activity contributed to fostering an engaging learning environment. Overall, the success of this innovative teaching activity underscores its transformative impact on student learning experiences, emphasizing the importance of active engagement and practical applications in chemistry education.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical Education is the official journal of the Division of Chemical Education of the American Chemical Society, co-published with the American Chemical Society Publications Division. Launched in 1924, the Journal of Chemical Education is the world’s premier chemical education journal. The Journal publishes peer-reviewed articles and related information as a resource to those in the field of chemical education and to those institutions that serve them. JCE typically addresses chemical content, activities, laboratory experiments, instructional methods, and pedagogies. The Journal serves as a means of communication among people across the world who are interested in the teaching and learning of chemistry. This includes instructors of chemistry from middle school through graduate school, professional staff who support these teaching activities, as well as some scientists in commerce, industry, and government.
