Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The laboratory course should do more than just acquaint the students with fundamental techniques and procedures. The laboratory experience should also involve the students in some of the kinds of mental activities a research scientist employs: finding patterns in data, developing mathematical analyses for them, forming hypotheses, testing hypotheses, debating with colleagues and designing experiments to prove a point. For this reason, the student-tested lab activities in Inquiries into Chemistry, 3/E have been designed so that students can practice these mental activities while building knowledge of the specific subject area. Instructors will enjoy the flexibility this text affords. They can select from a comprehensive collection of structured, guided-inquiry experiments and a corresponding collection of open-inquiry experiments, depending on their perception as to what would be the most appropriate method of instruction for their students. Both approaches were developed to encourage students to think logically and independently, to refine their mental models, and to allow students to have an experience that more closely reflects what occurs in actual scientific research. Thoroughly illustrated appendices cover safety in the lab, common equipment, and procedures.

Download or read book Guided Inquiry for General Chemistry First Edition written by J. Hugh Broome and published by Cognella Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guided Inquiry for General Chemistry provides students with an interactive introduction to key concepts in chemistry. This workbook covers all of the topics and ideas presented within a first-year chemistry course for science majors. Short chapters guide students to understanding through simple questions, followed by more advanced practice exercises designed to be completed in a group setting with instructor assistance. Each chapter introduces readers to fundamental chemistry concepts, challenges them to think and reflect on those concepts, and examines essential applications of those concepts. Topics in the book include atomic structure, bonding, Lewis dot structures, nomenclature, chemical reaction types, stoichiometry, states of matter, kinetics, equilibrium, energetics, electrochemistry, and nuclear chemistry. Each chapter features explicitly stated learning outcomes, a list of prerequisite chapters that will assist readers in their understanding of the current chapter, background information with guiding questions, and application questions to facilitate learning and retention. Comprehensive and approachable in nature, Guided Inquiry for General Chemistry is designed for first-year chemistry courses at the university level but is also well suited for introductory and high school chemistry courses.

Download or read book Guided Inquiry Experiments for General Chemistry written by Nancy K. Kerner and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-10-19 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of the laboratory is a valuable tool in developing a deeper understanding of key chemical concepts from the experimental process. This lab manual encourages scientific thinking, enabling readers to conduct investigations in chemistry. It shows how to think about the processes they are investigating rather than simply performing a laboratory experiment to the specifications set by the manual. Each experiment begins with a problem scenario and ends with questions requiring feedback on the problem.

Book excerpt: A new approach to teaching university-level chemistry that links core concepts of chemistry and physical science to current global challenges. Introductory chemistry and physics are generally taught at the university level as isolated subjects, divorced from any compelling context. Moreover, the “formalism first” teaching approach presents students with disembodied knowledge, abstract and learned by rote. By contrast, this textbook presents a new approach to teaching university-level chemistry that links core concepts of chemistry and physical science to current global challenges. It provides the rigorous development of the principles of chemistry but places these core concepts in a global context to engage developments in technology, energy production and distribution, the irreversible nature of climate change, and national security. Each chapter opens with a “Framework” section that establishes the topic’s connection to emerging challenges. Next, the “Core” section addresses concepts including the first and second law of thermodynamics, entropy, Gibbs free energy, equilibria, acid-base reactions, electrochemistry, quantum mechanics, molecular bonding, kinetics, and nuclear. Finally, the “Case Studies” section explicitly links the scientific principles to an array of global issues. These case studies are designed to build quantitative reasoning skills, supply the technology background, and illustrate the critical global need for the infusion of technology into energy generation. The text’s rigorous development of both context and scientific principles equips students for advanced classes as well as future involvement in scientific and societal arenas. University Chemistry was written for a widely adopted course created and taught by the author at Harvard.

Download or read book Orbitals in Chemistry written by Victor M. S. Gil and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000-08-10 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text presents a unified and up-to-date discussion of the role of atomic and molecular orbitals in chemistry, from the quantum mechanical foundations to the recent developments and applications. The discussion is mainly qualitative, largely based on symmetry arguments. It is felt that a sound mastering of the concepts and qualitative interpretations is needed, especially when students are becoming more and more familiar with numerical calculations based on atomic and molecular orbitals. The text is mathematically less demanding than most traditional quantum chemistry books but still retains clarity and rigour. The physical insight is maximized and abundant illustrations are used. The relationships between the more formal quantum mechanical formalisms and the traditional chemical descriptions of chemical bonding are critically established. This book is of primary interest to undergraduate chemistry students and others taking courses of which chemistry is a significant part.
