The 2nd year Forensic Science class created this beautiful ‘Chemistree’ using acids, bases and universal indicator. They used molymods representing chemicals to decorate it. 🎄Merry Christmas from the Forensic Science class, Sarah and Ms. Minton!🎄

The fluorescent #chemistree is up & it looks stunning! #FluorescenceFriday We ran a workshop with students making the glowing solutions out of common household substances. From Riboflavin in vitamin B2, chlorophyll from spinach to protoporphyrin IX in brown egg shells.

@CraigTheSciGuy @DrJohnODonoghue @RoySocChem Thank you Craig 😊 Here: the carbon dots chemistree 2023 https://t.co/6wEkj7Vqvc
I couldn't synthesise CdTe & CdS quantum dots in honour of this year's Chemistry Noble prize but managed to make carbon dots in the microwave using citric acid, urea, carbon soot, glucose, etc. Easy & quick nanomaterials that glow under UV light #Ochemistree 2023 @RoySocChem

The #Chemistree’s are still coming! Last day is tomorrow
Our #OChemistree honours the colours of glass tinted with copper chloride nanoparticles, produced by Alexei Ekimov. We used UV photoluminescence to make the baubles glow blue (like small quantum dots emitting high energy waves) or yellow (like larger nanoparticles) @OChemistree

This #Chemistree is inspired by the stained glass windows of the Sagrada Família in Barcelona. Droplets of red cabbage indicator at pH1-14 and a little UI are used to create the stained glass. Unfortunately no gold nanoparticles were available for my ‘glass’! #DropletArt

The #Chemistree creations are coming in thick & fast this week, we are loving everything so far! Well done - great pHestive celebrations (great pun @TewksAcademySc!). The deadline for entry into the competition is this Friday so we can sort through them for next week #OChemistree
We’re back for another year of #Chemistree fun! The theme this year is Nanomaterials & Quantum Dots, in line with the Chem @NobelPrize. Here are some ideas to get you started, we want to see LOTS of colours! Deadline for comp entry is 15th Dec #OChemistree

BCSF Y12 Chemistry Club constructed this beautiful #chemistree learning about how colour is produced in different molecules! We're paying homage to this year's Nobel prize winning work on quantum dots by producing the most vibrant colours we could! @OChemistree
