Chemistry at Work

  • Nov 22, 2024
  • 1 min read


Seventy-four Year 11 pupils set off by train on Tuesday 19.11.24 to the QUB-RSC Chemistry at Work exhibition at the Whitla Hall, Belfast. 

 

The main aim of ‘Chemistry at Work’ is to show the many and varied ways in which the chemistry studied by pupils at school is used in the real everyday world.  The Exhibition provided our pupils with the chance to see chemical-based companies and institutions presenting easily understood demonstrations of their use of chemistry at work.  They were encouraged to participate in some of the demonstrations. The pupils particularly enjoyed the BOC gas/W5 demonstration which involved cloud generation, frozen balloons that self-inflated, condensing liquid oxygen out of the air and using it to help cotton wool burn more vigorously and using boiling liquid nitrogen to power a fly wheel.

 

Hopefully, this experience has stimulated an interest in chemistry, particularly in industry, and demonstrated some aspects of the importance of chemistry in our society.

 

The pupils were excellent ambassadors for the school. We would like to thank the Chemistry Department at Queen's University for their kind invitation to the event and Translink for their assistance in getting such a large party there and back safely.

I solved the hackathon management services recently, and it really helped me understand the latest exam pattern. The Mathematics section felt quite lengthy compared to Physics and Chemistry.
