Seven experiments and 40 activities are presented in this handbook. The experiments are related to Young's experiment, electric forces, forces on currents, electron-beam tubes, and wave modulation and communication. The activities are primarily concerned with aspects of scattered and polarized light, colors, image formation, lenses, cameras,…

Five experiments and 19 activities are presented in this Unit 5 handbook. The experiments are related to electrolysis, charge-to-mass ratio, elementary charge determination, photoelectric effects, and spectroscopic analyses. The activities are concerned with Dalton's theory, water electrolysis, periodic tables, single-electron plating, cloud…

Five experiments and nine activities are presented in this Unit 6 handbook. The experiments are related to random events, ranges of alpha and beta particles, half-lives, and radioactive tracers. The activities are concerned with the energy measurement in beta radiation, demonstration with sugar cubes, ionization by radioactivity, magnetic…

Presents four simple laboratory procedures for: preparation of organometallic compounds, a realistic qualitative organic analysis project, a computer program to plot potentiometric titration curves, and preparation of stereoscopic transparencies. (SL)

Describes an organic chemistry laboratory exercise which uses thermochromic compounds to study the thermodynamic effect of temperature on chemical equilbrium. (SL)

Describes a series of polarography experiments using commercially available pulse polarography instruments. (SL)

A laboratory experiment is described which illustrates such concepts as resonance, inductive, steric, and solvation effects in a beginning organic chemistry course. This experiment is designed to encourage students to predict results and interpret their findings. (MR)
