This book was created to help teachers as they instruct students through the Master’s Class Chemistry course by Master Books. The teacher is one who guides students through the subject matter, helps each student stay on schedule and be organized, and is their source of accountability along the way. With that in mind, this guide provides additional help through the laboratory exercises, as well as lessons, quizzes, and examinations that are provided along with the answers. The lessons in this study emphasize working through procedures and problem solving by learning patterns. The vocabulary is kept at the essential level. Practice exercises are given with their answers so that the patterns can be used in problem solving. These lessons and laboratory exercises are the result of over 30 years of teaching home school high school students and then working with them as they proceed through college. Guided labs are provided to enhance instruction of weekly lessons. There are many principles and truths given to us in Scripture by the God that created the universe and all of the laws by which it functions. It is important to see the hand of God and His principles and wisdom as it plays out in chemistry. This course integrates what God has told us in the context of this study. Features: Each suggested weekly schedule has five easy-to-manage lessons that combine reading and worksheets. Worksheets, quizzes, and tests are perforated and three-hole punched — materials are easy to tear out, hand out, grade, and store. Adjust the schedule and materials needed to best work within your educational program. Space is given for assignments dates. There is flexibility in scheduling. Adapt the days to your school schedule. Workflow: Students will read the pages in their book and then complete each section of the teacher guide. They should be encouraged to complete as many of the activities and projects as possible as well. Tests are given at regular intervals with space to record each grade. About the Author: DR. DENNIS ENGLIN earned his bachelor’s from Westmont College, his master of science from California State University, and his EdD from the University of Southern California. He enjoys teaching animal biology, vertebrate biology, wildlife biology, organismic biology, and astronomy at The Master’s University.

In its new second edition, Investigating Chemistry: A Forensic Science Perspective remains the only book that uses the inherently fascinating topics of crime and criminal investigations as a context for teaching the fundamental chemical concepts most often covered in an introductory nonmajors course. Covering all the standard topics, Matthew Johll capitalizes on the surge of interest in the scientific investigation of crime (as sparked by CSI and other television shows), bringing together the theme of forensic science and the fundamentals of chemistry in ways that are effective and accessible for students. This edition features refined explanations of the chemical concepts, which are the core of the book, as well as a more thoroughly integrated forensic theme, updated features, and an expanded media/supplements package.

Have you ever wondered what makes up everything in the world around you? Or what exactly is the difference between solids, liquids, and gases? Have you wanted to know what causes two substances to react or change? Chemistry: Investigate the Matter that Makes Up Your World introduces readers 12 through 15 to the fascinating world of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Learn how these molecules combine to form ordinary objects such as the chair you’re sitting on, the water in your glass, even you! Through hands-on, investigative projects, readers delve into the world of chemical reactions and changing matter, learning how these principles are used in many areas of science, from biochemistry to nuclear science. Combining hands-on science inquiry with chemistry, mathematics, and biology, projects include building models of molecules and bonds, identifying acids and bases, investigating the effect of temperature on reaction rate, and observing how a chemical reaction from vinegar, water, and bleach can accelerate the rusting of steel. Chemistry offers entertaining illustrations and fascinating sidebars to illuminate the topic and engage readers further, plus integrates a digital learning component by providing links to primary sources, videos, and other relevant websites.

This handbook is written for any student between the ages of 15 and 19 studying Chemistry. Its content meets the core chemistry requirements of IGCSE, IBDP, A-Level and AP courses. The material will also help an undergraduate whose course requires a basic foundation in Chemistry. It offers an alternative, succinct perspective to enable students to understand key concepts and can be used as a concise reference resource or a review guide. Each topic contains comprehensive explanations supported by diagrams and worked examples. The final sections of the book hold useful reference material for experimental work and offer guidance on how to write laboratory reports. There is also a series of practice calculation questions with solutions.

Chemistry: An Everyday Approach to Chemical Investigation is intended to accompany any mainstream general chemistry course, and consists of 27 experiments that can be completed using only chemicals found in consumer products. The manual is an ideal resource for courses emphasizing green chemistry in which the use of hazardous materials is reduced or eliminated altogether. Many of the experiments requiring simple equipment and glassware can be performed at remote sites providing laboratory experience for use with on-line or long distance learning courses. The advantages of using accessible materials in chemistry laboratory are considerable. Students can reinforce lecture discussions while working with familiar materials. For instructors, assembling the chemicals required for a lab course can be accomplished with limited budgets and without access to a chemical company. Problems with safety and waste disposal are significantly reduced.
