Basic Laboratory and Industrial Chemicals

by David R. Lide

Basic Laboratory and Industrial Chemicals presents data on 1,000 high-profile chemical substances commonly used in the laboratory and workplace. A wide range of properties is provided for each compound, including the basic physical properties, such as melting point, boiling point, and critical temperatures; density; transition properties, such as vapor pressure and heats of vaporization and fusion; and the thermodynamic properties, viscosity, and thermal conductivity at 25°C. Molecular properties such as dipole moment and ionization potential are also included. Tables appear in alphabetical order by chemical name, and all data are taken from evaluated sources. This book eliminates the need to consult voluminous sources for frequently needed data on the most common chemicals, making it an essential reference for all scientists, engineers, and students.
