One of the fundamental elements of a scientist's work is the ability to lead observations of the phenomena that surround us and based on them making conclusions. These observations are conducted within the so-called scientific experiments. Lessons learned based on the results obtained in experiments allow researchers to better understand the essence of the phenomena occurring in the world around us. Drawing conclusions is not always easy. In order to achieve this skill, we must possess a well-established knowledge in the field of the phenomenon that interests us. The most striking example of how important skills are observation and drawing proper conclusions is the phenomenon of global climate warming. The main parameter influencing temperatures registered on Earth is the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and especially carbon dioxide created from combustion processes. A significant role in studies of the reduction of CO2 emissions plays chemists. To be sure that conducted by them experiments are optimally designed, it is necessary to ensure them with proper education already at the secondary school level. The main aim of this article was to conduct the study in order to explain chemical issues that create the greatest cognitive difficulties among students. The second aim of the article was to propose a chemical experiment to students that would allow them to find out more about the phenomena governing in the area of problematic issues. The proposed experiment is based on the concept of solubility equilibrium. Results of preliminary tests that have been carried out after applying this experiment on a small group of students, indicated their better understanding of the studied subject.

The elevated operating temperatures of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) create favorable kinetics for the oxidation of carboncontaining gas mixtures, which may include carbon monoxide and light organic compounds. The presence of carbon-based components in the fuel might result in the formation and deposition of soot on the surface of the anode in a fuel cell. This process depends on and is driven by the prevailing thermodynamic, kinetic and electrochemical conditions. The present study was premised on the following: in addition to the aforementioned parameters providing for the operating conditions, gas velocity also affects the formation of deposits on the anode. The role of fuel gas velocity in the process was studied experimentally using 5 cm x 5 cm anode supported solid oxide fuel cells (AS-SOFC) at 750°C at velocities in the range 0.1 to 0.9 m/s. It was found that carbon deposition was clearly observable approximately 24 hours after the necessary conditions were attained. An intense stage of performance degradation typically lasts for a period of up to 60 hours. An increase in fuel flow velocity leads to an acceleration in the carbon deposition process. The correlation between velocity and cell degradation due to this phenomenon was determined and the corresponding function was proposed.

The current methods of fire diagnosis for inaccessible areas of coal mines, such as gob are not always definitive. In some cases, it is difficult to determine if incidents involving ignitions or smoldering have evolved into flaming minę fires. A more definitive test for fire could involve monitoring for the existence of radiocarbon -carbon-fourteen (14C) in carbon monoxide (CO). CO is produced by the Iow temperature oxidation of coal; however, since coal is millions of years old, this CO will not have any 14C in it. The only carbon that will have the modern amount of UC in it will be the CO2 that is in the air that is drawn into the mine by the ventilation system. In accordance with the Boudouard Equilibrium, an interchange can take place that converts CO2 to CO, but only at temperatures high enough to be associated with fire. If this interchange takes place, then CO would have 14C in it. The existence of 14C in CO could be a definitive indicator of fire in gob areas. This paper outlines the background associated with this theory and examines preliminary methods for testing for the presence of 14C.

Aktualne metody diagnozowania pożarów w niedostępnych obszarach kopalni węgla, takich jak zroby, nie zawsze są rozstrzygające. W niektórych przypadkach, trudno jest określić, czy wypadki, w których nastąpił zapłon lub tlenie się spowodowały pożar w kopalni. Bardziej rozstrzygające badanie pożaru powinno obejmować monitoring obecności radiowęgla - węgla-14, (14C) w tlenku węgla (CO). Tlenek węgla jest produkowany przy niskotemperaturowym utlenianiu węgla, jednak, skoro węgiel ma miliony lat, tlenek węgla nie będzie zawierał 14C. Jedyny węgiel, który będzie zawierał C z obecnych czasów, będzie to CO2 obecny w powietrzu, które jest wprowadzane do kopalni poprzez system wentylacji. Zgodnie z równowagą Boudouarda może mieć miejsce zamiana, która przekształca CO2 w CO, ale tylko w wysokich temperaturach, które mogą towarzyszyć pożarowi. Jeśli taka zamiana ma miejsce, wtedy CO będzie zawierał 14C. Obecność 14C w CO mogłaby być rozstrzygającym wskaźnikiem pożarów w obszarach zrobów. Artykuł przedstawia w zarysie przesłanki powiązane z tą teorią i analizuje wstępne metody badania obecności 14C.
