Demonstrations

Twists and tricks to the classics and new ideas for all

It would not be the same without some demonstrations at a ChemEd! Over the last 50 years, literally hundreds of demonstrations have been presented at ChemEds. The best part: presenters provide instructions on how to do these demos in your classroom!
