Summary

The sixth edition of this superb lab manual offers 34 class-tested experiments, suitable for introductory and preparatory chemistry courses and texts, including INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY: AN ACTIVE LEARNING APPROACH, Second Edition by Cracolice and Peters. Experiments in this lab manual teach students to collect and analyze experimental data and provide them with a strong foundation for further course work in general chemistry. This edition offers instructors 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 Fifth Edition, there are Work Pages for each experiment as well as Report Sheets, for students to take notes, record experimental data and results, which facilitate the instructor in grading the experiments.
