482 pages

Description
Inorganic chemistry is one of the first subjects any chemistry student learns. This classic book, now in its third edition, has been revised, restructured and updated to help students learn to develop their laboratory and reporting skills.

The experiments have been thoroughly tested and safety instructions are included and wherever possible, hazardous substances have been replaced by less harmful ones.

The book is divided into three types of experiments: introductory, intermediate and advanced. This well-planned division is an excellent aid to help find suitable experiments for a range of students from undergraduate to graduate level. There is now a total of 96 experiments.
