Students from Mrs. Payne’s Honors General Chemistry class decked the halls of Knott Hall in honor of National Chemistry Week. This year’s theme – Chemistry Colors the World – was the topic of the posters each student had to complete. Each student was to choose a topic that showed the connection between chemistry and color. Some of the posters featured topics such as fireworks, why leaves change colors, chameleons, gemstones and hydrangeas!
This year, the theme for National Chemistry Week is Chemistry Colors Our World. This theme focuses on the chemistry of dyes, pigments, food colors, rainbows and fireworks. The ACS Club kicked off National Chemistry Week celebrations by making tie-dye artwork with household ingredients, including almond milk, soap, and food coloring. Students got to show their creative side on how chemistry colors our world!
