Basic Chemistry Concepts and Exercises by John Kenkel Pdf

Chemistry can be a daunting subject for the uninitiated, and all too often, introductory textbooks do little to make students feel at ease with the complex subject matter. Basic Chemistry Concepts and Exercises brings the wisdom of John Kenkel’s more than 35 years of teaching experience to communicate the fundamentals of chemistry in a practical, down-to-earth manner. Using conversational language and logically assembled graphics, the book concisely introduces each topic without overwhelming students with unnecessary detail. Example problems and end-of-chapter questions emphasize repetition of concepts, preparing students to become adept at the basics before they progress to an advanced general chemistry course. Enhanced with visualization techniques such as the first chapter’s mythical microscope, the book clarifies challenging, abstract ideas and stimulates curiosity into what can otherwise be an overwhelming topic. Topics discussed in this reader-friendly text include: Properties and structure of matter Atoms, molecules, and compounds The Periodic Table Atomic weight, formula weights, and moles Gases and solutions Chemical equilibrium Acids, bases, and pH Organic chemicals The appendix contains answers to the homework exercises so students can check their work and receive instant feedback as to whether they have adequately grasped the concepts before moving on to the next section. Designed to help students embrace chemistry not with trepidation, but with confidence, this solid preparatory text forms a firm foundation for more advanced chemistry training.

Sample Preparation Techniques in Analytical Chemistry by Somenath Mitra Pdf

The importance of accurate sample preparation techniques cannot be overstated--meticulous sample preparation is essential. Often overlooked, it is the midway point where the analytes from the sample matrix are transformed so they are suitable for analysis. Even the best analytical techniques cannot rectify problems generated by sloppy sample pretreatment. Devoted entirely to teaching and reinforcing these necessary pretreatment steps, Sample Preparation Techniques in Analytical Chemistry addresses diverse aspects of this important measurement step. These include: * State-of-the-art extraction techniques for organic and inorganic analytes * Sample preparation in biological measurements * Sample pretreatment in microscopy * Surface enhancement as a sample preparation tool in Raman and IR spectroscopy * Sample concentration and clean-up methods * Quality control steps Designed to serve as a text in an undergraduate or graduate level curriculum, Sample Preparation Techniques in Analytical Chemistry also provides an invaluable reference tool for analytical chemists in the chemical, biological, pharmaceutical, environmental, and materials sciences.

Chemical Technicians by Mohamed Elzagheid Pdf

This book for chemical technicians contains a variety of skills that chemical technicians and technicians who work in chemical plants should develop as part of their successful experience. Many of these competencies were unintentionally addressed in other resources in a dispersed way across chapters in various textbooks and internet resources, but many others were not. The book also provides a brief overview of the tasks that various chemical laboratory technicians must perform as part of their employment. It also includes a thorough explanation of the sampling techniques, chemical analysis, and a description of the various tools and methods used in chemical labs. Additionally the book covers information management systems and good practices in laboratories, as well as how these have allowed and facilitated best practices in laboratories and the gathering of data that improves technicians’ experience and knowledge. Finally, some advice on using lab glassware, laboratory emergency first aid, and a short description of the chemicals that chemical technicians frequently use are provided.
