Organic Smell Identification—
Super Value Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
Aromatherapy—it’s organic chemistry! Introduce students to the wide variety of organic compounds found in nature that are used in fragrances, flavorings, and perfumes. Students are invited to take a “whiff” of 20 volatile organic compounds having pleasant, familiar odors and to identify natural sources of the same scents. A revised set of scent iden- tification cards makes it easy for students to classify odors and match them with structures. All of the scents included in the kit are “essential oil” ingredients—isolated from flowers, fruits, and vegetables—that give them their characteristic odors and flavors. These natural compounds are used as fragrance and flavor additives in perfumes, foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical products. Geraniol, for example, is a major ingredient in the natural oils isolated from geraniums and roses and is used as both a perfume and insect attractant. Cinnamaldehyde, obtained from “oil of cinnamon,” is used as a flavoring agent in candies and foods. Certain to stimulate lively student discussion of the uses of organic chemicals in their everyday lives, this lab activity will teach students that chemistry makes scents! Includes an expanded discussion of the structures and fragrance and flavor applications of all the organic scent compounds. Recommended follow-up ideas and activities also provided.
Super Value Kit is complete with 20 reusable samples.
The Color of Chemistry—Dyes, Dyeing and Chemical Bonding— Student Laboratory Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
What is your favorite color? Color affects our senses, our moods, even our learning. In this lab activity, students investigate the reaction of five different dyes with a special multifiber fabric containing strips of wool, acrylic, polyester, nylon, cotton and acetate. The brilliant color patterns produced by different dyes on the multifiber fabric teach students about the structures of dye and fabric molecules and the types of bonding interaction between them. Chemistry has never looked so good! Includes reproducible student handouts, detailed background information, complete Instructor’s Notes with answers to all questions, and all necessary chemicals and consumable supplies.
Complete for 30 students working in groups of three.
