The International Year of Chemistry hits prime-time TV on Jeopardy!, one of North America's leading syndicated quiz shows. Jeopardy! will feature clues related to the 2011 International Year of Chemistry (IYC) in an episode airing Tuesday, June 21.
The show provides the perfect venue for sharing the IYC's message--one of celebrating chemistry and the contributions that this fundamental science makes to society. It's also a great opportunity for you to test your knowledge of chemistry.
Local listings for the show, hosted by Alex Trebek, can be found at www.jeopardy.com, but if you miss the broadcast, you'll still be able to view at least a portion of the show after June 21.
We'll be sure to provide you access to the link.
ChEnected and AIChE ask you to help raise awareness of IYC 2011 by passing the word about the Jeopardy broadcast.
