Standard and Microscale Experiments in General Chemistry


Book Description

This comprehensive lab manual contains a wide array of experiments without sacrificing organizational clarity and includes categories on Energy, Kinetics, and Equilibrium. All experiments have undergone significant testing before being finalized, and many microscale experiments have been added to allow for more efficient and cost-effective means of conducting experiments.







Techniques in Organic Chemistry


Book Description

"Compatible with standard taper miniscale, 14/10 standard taper microscale, Williamson microscale. Supports guided inquiry"--Cover.




Organic Experiments


Book Description

The market leader for the full-year organic laboratory, this manual derives many experiments and procedures from the classic Feiser lab text, giving it an unsurpassed reputation for solid, authoritative content. The Sixth Edition includes new experiments that stress greener chemistry, as well as updated NMR spectra and a Premium Website that includes glassware-specific videos with pre-lab, gradable exercises. Offering a flexible mix of macroscale and microscale options for most experiments, this proven manual emphasizes safety and allows instructors to save on the purchase and disposal of expensive, sometimes hazardous, organic chemicals. Macroscale versions can be used for less costly experiments, allowing students to get experience working with conventionally-sized glassware.

Microscale Chemistry


Book Description

Developing microscale chemistry experiments, using small quantities of chemicals and simple equipment, has been a recent initiative in the UK. Microscale chemistry experiments have several advantages over conventional experiments: They use small quantities of chemicals and simple equipment which reduces costs; The disposal of chemicals is easier due to the small quantities; Safety hazards are often reduced and many experiments can be done quickly; Using plastic apparatus means glassware breakages are minimised; Practical work is possible outside a laboratory. Microscale Chemistry is a book of such experiments designed for use in schools and colleges, and the ideas behind the experiments in it come from many sources, including chemistry teachers from all around the world. Current trends indicate that with the likelihood of further environmental legislation, the need for microscale chemistry teaching techniques and experiments is likely to grow. This book should serve as a guide in this process.




Multiscale Operational Organic Chemistry


Book Description

This comprehensive laboratory text provides a thorough introduction to all of the significant operations used in the organic lab and includes a large selection of traditional-scale and microscale experiments and minilabs. Its unique problem-solving approach encourages students to think in the laboratory by solving a scientific problem in the process of carrying out each experiment. The Second Edition contains a new introductory section, "Chemistry and the Environment," which includes a discussion of the principles of green chemistry. Several green experiments have been added, and some experiments from the previous editions have been revised to make them greener.




Microscale Organic Laboratory


Book Description

This updated revision offers total coverage of organic laboratory experiments and techniques focusing on modern laboratory instrumentation, a strong emphasis on lab safety, additional concentration on sequential reaction sequences, excellent pre- and post-lab exercises, and multistep experiments which maximize the number of manipulations students perform per lab period. The microscale approach is low in cost, offers ease of doing experiments and uses minimal amounts of chemicals. A number of experiments include instructions for scaling up.




Microscale and Miniscale Organic Chemistry Laboratory Experiments


Book Description

This book offers a comprehensive introductory treatment of the organic laboratory techniques for handling glassware and equipment, safety in the laboratory, micro- and miniscale experimental procedures, theory of reactions and techniques, relevant background information, applications and spectroscopy.




The Organic Chem Lab Survival Manual


Book Description

Teaches students the basic techniques and equipment of the organic chemistry lab — the updated new edition of the popular hands-on guide. The Organic Chem Lab Survival Manual helps students understand the basic techniques, essential safety protocols, and the standard instrumentation necessary for success in the laboratory. Author James W. Zubrick has been assisting students navigate organic chemistry labs for more than three decades, explaining how to set up the laboratory, make accurate measurements, and perform safe and meaningful experiments. This practical guide covers every essential area of lab knowledge, from keeping detailed notes and interpreting handbooks to using equipment for chromatography and infrared spectroscopy. Now in its eleventh edition, this guide has been thoroughly updated to cover current laboratory practices, instruments, and techniques. Focusing primarily on macroscale equipment and experiments, chapters cover microscale jointware, drying agents, recrystallization, distillation, nuclear magnetic resonance, and much more. This popular textbook: Familiarizes students with common lab instruments Provides guidance on basic lab skills and procedures Includes easy-to-follow diagrams and illustrations of lab experiments Features practical exercises and activities at the end of each chapter Provides real-world examples of lab notes and instrument manuals The Organic Chem Lab Survival Manual: A Student’s Guide to Techniques, 11th Edition is an essential resource for students new to the laboratory environment, as well as those more experienced seeking to refresh their knowledge.
