University of Colorado Professors Tarek Sammakia and Gordon Yee are sure to whip up some fun Feb. 28 in 聯Polymers, Foams and Gels,聰 the next segment of the popular 抖阴短视频 Wizards science series for children.
The chemistry and biochemistry professors will perform a variety of demonstrations including making slime, blowing up a hydrogen balloon and dissolving a styrofoam mannequin with nail polish remover.
Preparing to do the show for the third year in a row, the professors offer this tongue-in-cheek warning: 聯If you sit in the back of the auditorium you will be less likely to be in the line of fire.聰
The free show begins at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 28, in Chemistry room 140, on the 抖阴短视频-Boulder campus. The Cristol Chemistry and Biochemistry Building is located immediately north of the University Memorial Center, at Broadway and Euclid Avenue.
The program, recommended for children in grades 5 through 9, is the sixth in a series of 10 science shows to be presented during the 1997-98 academic year. The monthly shows are designed to informally introduce students to astronomy, chemistry and physics.
Close-in parking is available for $1.25 in the Euclid Avenue Autopark east of the UMC. Anyone with a disability or special need is asked to notify the physics department at 492-6952 a few days in advance of the show.
