Nuclear Chemistry is an excellent section for special topics or term papers. Examples
                          of possible subjects are:

                                 1.    Linear accelerators.
                                 2.    Radon in homes: kits to measure radon gas can be purchased from Central
                                        Scientific Co., 11222 Melrose Avenue, Franklin Park, IL 60131-1364 (1-800-
                                        262-3626).
                                 3.    Any nuclear medical technique. You might contact a local oncologist.
                                 4.    Have students consider the pros and cons of generating electricity by nuclear
                                        power as opposed to coal-burning plants, or using wood to heat homes.
                                        Consider the bumper sticker Split Wood, Not Atoms. You might contact your
                                        local power company. Most have a technical public relations office that can
                                        provide written information or a guest speaker for your class.
