| Abstract | Originally published in The Microscope, Vol. 13, No. 8, July–August, 1962. I sometimes thought it would be possible to teach a full university chemistry curriculum at a laboratory bench equipped with a simple student's microscope, some slides and coverslips in lieu of beakers, and an alcohol lamp in lieu of a Bunsen burner. Simple microscopical experiments could be chosen to illustrate general chemistry as well as inorganic, organic, physical and analytical chemistry. I have yet to prepare such a curriculum in detail, but the following representative experiments will illustrate the possibility. Furthermore, the experiments to be suggested have been chosen so that the equipment required as well as the chemicals are easily obtained and so that a maximum in results is obtained with a minimum of effort. It is hoped that science teachers on all levels may be tempted to expose their students to some of these experiments and that microscopists in general, but especially the hobbyists, may hereby find another string for their bows. |
