Lab Manual for General Chemistry approaches the gen chem. lab experience with a combination of experiment styles. Skill Building, Guided Inquiry, and Open Inquiry, in order to maximize information and skills in the minimal amount of lab time. There are 24 experiments with Pre-Lab questions to help you prepare for the lab ahead of time, Post-Lab questions to reinforce the core concepts of the lab. Key Feature Twenty-four total experiments featuring Skill Building experiments, Guided Inquiry experiments and Open Inquiry experiments, meet all of the needs of students and instructors looking for a selection of laboratory pedagogy In Guided Inquiry experiments, students collect data/observations on designated variables without previously studying the relationship between variables Open Inquiry experiments ask students to design experiments to answer questions based on their understanding of the concepts Table of Contents 1.
