M.C. Detective Agency - Chapter 7 - Follow the Red-Dotted Road

Meet the Dread Pirate Chlorine Clive and his crew of electron-stealing elements aboard their ship, The Grand Anion. They’re racing toward a king's ransom of gold and silver, but our detectives, Poppi and Ray, are determined to get there first. Can you learn enough about ions and ionic compounds to help?

The M.C. Detective Agency is a comic book series written by Colleen Kelley, Ph.D., as part of Kids Chemical Solutions. These comics help kids get an early introduction to chemistry and master material taught at the college level. The four-part comic book series, along with activity packets and sample lesson plans, are available at kidschemicalsolutions.com
