Manipulations de Chime

In this manual there are 46 experiments. The emphasis is more on fundamental principles and quantitative relationships than is usual in most first year courses. Another departure from the average course is the authors’ use of the laboratory quiz to supplant the usual laboratory notes or answers to questions. In this manual the only papers to be handed in are the data sheets, which, in most cases, contain only the quantitative data and calculations. A list of study questions is given at the end of each experiment and a quiz on some of these questions is to be given at the end of each days work. Lists of reagents required for the experiments are appended.
