Lab Experiments for General Chemistry

This is not your average chemistry lab manual. LAB EXPERIMENTS FOR GENERAL CHEMISTRY walks you through the standard chemistry experiments but it also includes "guided discovery" experiments that let you take control of your own learning. With this manual, you won't get lost in class and you might just learn something new as well. Get the grade you need and experiment for yourself with LAB EXPERIMENTS FOR GENERAL CHEMISTRY.
