Chemical Demonstrations : A Handbook for Teachers of Chemistry Vol 4

The demonstrations capture interest, teach, inform, fascinate, amaze, and perhaps, most importantly, involve students in chemistry. Nowhere else will you find books that answer, "How come it happens? . . . Is it safe? . . . What do I do with all the stuff when the demo is over?" Shakhashiri and his collaborators offer 282 chemical demonstrations arranged in 11 chapters. Each demonstration includes seven sections: a brief summary, a materials list, a step-by-step account of procedures to be used, an explanation of the hazards involved, information on how to store or dispose of the chemicals used, a discussion of the phenomena displayed and principles illustrated by the demonstration, and a list of references.Bassam Z. Shakhashiri is the author of 'Chemical Demonstrations : A Handbook for Teachers of Chemistry Vol 4', published 1992 under ISBN 9780299128609 and ISBN 0299128601.
