Introduction to Chemical Principles: A Laboratory Approach [Paperback]

The seventh edition of this superb lab manual offers 36 class-tested experiments, suitable for introductory, preparatory, and health science chemistry courses and texts, including INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY: AN ACTIVE LEARNING APPROACH, Fourth Edition by Cracolice and Peters. Experiments in this lab manual teach users to collect and analyze experimental data and provide them with a strong foundation for further course work in general chemistry. This edition offers users a wide variety of experiments to customize their laboratory program, including many microscale experiments. All experiments can be completed in a three-hour laboratory period. As in the Sixth Edition, there are Work Pages for each experiment as well as Report Sheets for users to take notes and record experimental data and results, which facilitate instructor grading of experiments.SAFETY IN THE LABORATORY.
