A recent issue of the Journal of Chemical Education (April 1999, 76 (4)) highlighted the teaching of chemistry through games, puzzles and humor. Following this theme, we have created three logic puzzles for use with high school chemistry.
A fair amount of chemistry content knowledge is needed to solve these puzzles. They were written as a fun, challenging and interesting way to demonstrate knowledge of basic colligative properties and electrochemistry.
All of the puzzles were written as stand-alone activities, though, they certainly could be used with other activities, or as a form of assessment.
