The American Chemical Society club puts on a chemistry magic show every year. Recently their show has become an event in the Maryland Stem Festival. They performed the show to a packed room of county middle school students and to our own underclassmen. New this year was the enhanced flame test, which demonstrates the colors emitted by metals when they are heated in a flame. Senior chemistry major Olivia Apicella is shown conducting the flame experiment. Many other club members also presented experiments.
