Laboratory Manual for Principles of General Chemistry 11 Edition covers two semesters of a general chemistry laboratory program. The material focuses on the lab experiences that reinforce the concepts that not all experimental conclusions are the same and depend on identifying an appropriate experimental procedure, selecting the proper apparatus, employing the proper techniques, systematically analyzing and interpreting the data, and minimizing inherent variables. As a result of “good” data, a scientific and analytical conclusion is made which may or may not “be right,” but is certainly consistent with the data. Experiments write textbooks, textbooks don’t write experiments. A student’s scientific literacy grows when experiences and observations associated with the scientific method are encountered. Further experimentation provides additional “cause & effect” observations leading to an even better understanding of the experiment. The 11th edition’s experiments are informative and challenging while offering a solid foundation for technique, safety, and experimental procedure. The reporting and analysis of the data and the pre- and post-lab questions focus on the intuitiveness of the experiment. The experiments may accompany any general chemistry textbook and are compiled at the beginning of each curricular unit. An “Additional Notes” column is included in each experiment’s Report Sheet to provide a space for recording observations and data during the experiment. Continued emphasis on handling data is supported by the “Data Analysis” section.
This new edition introduces more problem-solving strategies and new conceptual and challenge problems. Also, each Chapter Review has been enhanced with Learning Goals to reinforce the mastery of concepts for students.
This laboratory manual contains 42 experiments for the standard sequence of topics in general, organic, and biological chemistry.
The book guides students through basic chemistry problem solving with engaging visuals and a focus on developing the math skills necessary to be successful in the course.

Essential Laboratory Manual for General, Organic and Biological Chemistry
The main objective in writing this text is to make the study of chemistry an engaging and a positive experience for students by relating the structure and behaviour of matter to real life.
The eText pages look exactly like the printed text, and include powerful interactive and customization functions. This is the product access code card for MasteringChemistry with Pearson eText and does not include the actual bound book.
Health, Environmental, and Green Chemistry Notes throughout the text relate chemistry chapters to real-life topics in health, the environment, and medicine that are interesting and motivating to students.
