A lab manual appropriate for courses in General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry.

This popular, well-respected lab manual for general, organic, and biological chemistry provides a comprehensive collection of thirty-six experiments. Each experiment has been extensively class-tested and fine-tuned in a laboratory setting by thousands of students over many years.

  • NEW - A new, easier-to-use format and design is featured.
    • Allows students to find key information more easily. Ex.___

  • NEW - More thorough safety and disposal issues throughout is addressed.
    • Stresses the importance of laboratory safety and conforms to current practice for chemical disposal. Ex.___

  • NEW - Greatly reduces the quantities of chemicals used.
    • Reduces waste, safety risks and costs. Ex.___

  • NEW - A completely rewritten Lab on Chemical Equilibrium (but with no change in required equipment).
    • Provides a better experiment without an unnecessary change in required equipment. Ex.___

  • Experiments and materials that relate as much as possible to real life are used.
    • Makes the experiments more relevant and interesting to the types of students who take this course. Ex.___

  • Questions and activities.
    • Get students involved in the experiments and encourage them to think critically about them. Ex.___

  • Each laboratory consists of Objectives, Pre-Laboratory questions, Discussion, The Experiment, Observations and Results, and Questions and Problems.
    • Provides students and instructors with the pedagogy necessary to understand the experiment. Ex.___
