Scholars,
As we move through the protocol for scientific method this week, we realize how important it is to study other scientific research before conducting our own. For this weeks online assignment I would like you to find a Chemistry article (periodical) (of your choice of topic) online, make sure the link to the article is in your post and discuss/sumarize the research you found.
(ABSTRACTS ARE OK but full text is preferred)
Here is a hint: go to google, at the top of the page click more... then click scholar then all you have to do is type in the topic of your choice.
Mr. D

A team from Penn State University is experimenting with aluminum as an energy source. By vaporizing aluminum and placing it in a low-pressure container, aluminum clusters can be formed. These clusters react with water to release hydrogen gas. There are, however, several complications to this method such as only clusters of certain proportions seem to react and only a small amount of hydrogen is being created. Because the aluminum is oxidized when hydrogen is created, its cost is more than the would-be profit. This project has potential but requires much more experimentation.
