Chemical Compound Brochure/Flier Project

REQUIREMENTS:
Make a colorful and interesting brochure or flier using Publisher or similar program. Use pictures, diagrams...etc. anything to appropriately draw attention to it. Make it look professional. You may use front and back. Be original and creative. These projects are intended to educate and entertain. Your name and class should be somewhere on the flier. Include a properly cited bibliography /or URL documentation in proper form somewhere in your flier.
CHECKLIST OF WHAT TO INCLUDE: (You may find that not all information is available for all compounds. Be selective and choose interesting information.)

Tips:

· Be mindful of copyright. Bottom line - do not present the work of others as your own.

· If printing in blank and white use color pencil or markers to spice up the brochure.

· Focus on what makes your compound interesting or unusual. Personalize your brochure. Don't include properties when you don't know what they are (e.g. dipole moment).

· Copy and paste your page into MS Word and run the spell and grammar check.
