Abstract

It is widely believed that chemistry teachers must recognize the nature of chemistry and technology (technochemistry) to assist their students in preparing an explanation of a phenomenon scientifically correctly and understanding critically about technology and it relationship with society. This study aimed to analysis pre-service chemistry teachers’ view toward technochemistry and to compare with their pre-conceptions about ionic liquids. Ionicliquids concept is a technochemistry. The view of technochemistry obtained through Nature of Science and Technology Questionnaire (NSTQ) with 9 items and respondend by 157 pre-service chemistry and pre-conception study performed using semistructured interview with 20 respondend from the same group. The ionic liquids are compound consists of anions and cations, without neutral molecules, and has very low melting point (temperature ranged below 100oC) even mostly ranged at around room temperature. The application of ionic liquids as new generation of green chemistry, electrolytes, and engineering fluids on the last decade has drawn the great attention of international community of science and technology. The results show that most of the pre-service teachers realized that both of science and technology are a distinct subject. Most of them stated that technology is a simply implementation of science, instead of having bidirectional relationship with science. The results indicated that no correspondence between the view of technochemistry and the pre-conceptions about ionic liquids.
