Experiments from various areas of Chemistry were examined and transformed into demos.  Each demo was recreated in the lab, diagnosing the principal concepts inherent in its lab procedure that are crucial to the lecture in the respective areas.  These demos were examined and critiqued to signify their relationship with fundamentals of Chemistry at the freshman level.  The results of the project were: the Belousov-Zhabotinsky oscillating reaction drawing musical fractals; liver enzyme-assay on catalytic activity; and separation thru continuous extraction technique.
