Three basic goals guide the development of the 48 experiments in LABORATORY EXPERIMENTS FOR GENERAL, ORGANIC AND BIOCHEMISTRY, 8E, International Edition: (1) the experiments illustrate the concepts learned in class; (2) the experiments are clearly and concisely written, so you can work with minimal supervision and perform them in a 2-1/2 hour lab period; and (3) the experiments are simple demonstrations that contain a sense of discovery.
