Be wary of SAMs wanting to use your time else where. If you use Risk Asses use the spreadsheet option to list all pracs this year and write prepa...

Re: bromine substitute prac
You can use acidified potassium permanganate. In brief Acidified potassium permanganate solution can be used to differentiate between alkanes and alkenes. Alkenes will react with potassium permanganate solution in the presence of sulfuric acid while alkanes will not. During the reaction with an alke...

Re: ferroxyl gel
I set it in petri dishes and stored in the fridge up to ten days, the students lightly press in the nails etc.
I was going to be away when they did the prac so I did it in advance. It worked fine and didn't change colour or go watery.

Re: Partical Theory
Hi
I have 2 smallish white baskets wired together to make a cage and 1/2 filled with ping pong balls.
This is a model for a solid when still, liquid when shaken and gas when vigorously shaken.
Questacon has one so I copied it.

I could email you the c1/c2 files and you copy them BUT I really don't know what the point would be as the database takes a lot of work and will be replaced soon... we hope.

Narelle cant wait to catch up xx

Re: Hazardous Chemical register - chemwatch
C1/C2 is not a form but a excel database that was issued when CSIS was first introduced. It originally came on a disk and you copied C1 as many times as you had storage areas. Then C2 consolidated all of the C1 files and produces any licences, hazardous lists/information you may need. You can look a...

The DET Regional WHS Officer is still waiting for a response from the CSIS team ,
