Abstract

This demonstration brings Liebig's famous 19th-century demonstration headlong into the 21st century, using digital video footage and other novel media. We describe how to effectively carry out the reaction in a classroom situation and show how the Barking Dog reaction can be used to illustrate various principles of physical chemistry.
