SSSERC’s law?
5(3) oxygen meters
Oxygen electrodes, used routinely in industry and research for some time, have recently been made sufficiently robust and inexpensive for school use,
9(7) The Exploding match experiment
A safer alternative method for this entertaining activity.
10(8) Freezing by evaporation: an OHP demonstration
Evaporation of the water is done by evacuating the space surrounding it using a rotary pump. The amount which can be frozen is very small, of the order of a few drops, so that the overhead projector is used to show the process happening.

4(2) On blowing up balloons
Relative rates of deflation of balloons filled with air, hydrogen and carbon dioxide should be in accord with what kinetic theory and Graham’s law would predict. However, this is not so.
8(6) Decimal to binary converter
Asuggestion for a decimal to binary code conversion unit.

12(10) Stations experiments markers
Using marker labels cut from empty plastic bottles.
13(11) Oxygen electrode stirrer
The rate of stirring of the solution affects the rate of oxygen transfer, which could therefore affect the meter reading. We offer a solution.

6(4) Redox prediction analogue
Use of redox potentials and prediction of direction of spontaneous reactions causes difficulty for some pupils. This analogue balance can offer some help in this situation.
9(7) Thorax bell-jar model
A recurring problem with this model is the perishing of the rubber sheet used to represent the diaphragm. We offer an alternative – material from an old inner tube.
