Experimental Organic Chemistry: A Balanced Approach : Macroscale and Microscale

by Christina Noring Hammond, Terence C. Morrill, Douglas C. Neckers

With this exciting new class-tested lab manual, undergraduates can investigate the experimental process for themselves, and not merely follow directions. Lecturers can choose from among 91experiments, using traditional, Macroscale (large amounts of chemicals) and modern, Microscale (fewer chemicals and safer) approaches. The experiments, 18 of which are discovery-based, are accompanied by projects designed to foster student teamwork and promote critical thinking. Video demonstrations of laboratory techniques are included on the CD-ROM packaged with the book. This edition calls for the use of ground glassware. A version using Kontes (Williamson) glassware will be available next year. Instructor's Manual
