Description
Book SynopsisThis manual, Introduction to Chemistry Lab Manual, is written for undergraduate students taking a General Chemistry laboratory course concurrently with General Chemistry. This is written primarily for those taking Chem 171 at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, however would be applicable in most any General Chemistry laboratory course. The purpose of a General Chemistry laboratory is not only to reinforce concepts taken from lecture through experimentation, but also to develop the student's experimental techniques. Beginning with elementary experiments in density of solids and liquids, these experiments traverse a myriad of general chemistry topics through twelve illuminating experiments including heats of formation and titrations, finally ending with a novel experiment in magnetic susceptibility.
