About the Cover:

The lovely chrysanthemumlike bloom on this month's cover is actually dehydrated chrome alum seen through a microscope. The experiments described by Tanaka, Koga, and Galwey (page 251) are not only aesthetically pleasing but also provide a way for students at many educational levels to learn about kinetics through visual observation.
