Chemistry Students at Queens College Science Open House

Early in the morning on January 11, a busload of sophomore and junior chemistry students from Kellenberg Memorial ventured to Queens College for their 21^st Annual Science Open House. As students toured the campus and took to the laboratory, they participated in a number of hands-on experiments.
In the lab, students were shown how to use liquid nitrogen to make ice cream. Later in the day, students were treated to the Thomas J. Hayden Chemistry Show where they watched chemical compounds react, change color, freeze, thaw, and explode.
The trip was a positive experience for all involved and allowed students to develop ideas of how chemistry is helping to solve problems in our world.
