This lab manual gives students all the necessary background to enter the laboratory with the knowledge to perform the experiments with confidence.

For the microscale labs, experiments were chosen to provide tangible quantities of material, which can then be analyzed.

Chapters 1-2 introduce students to the equipment, record keeping, and safety of the laboratory.

Chapters 3-6, and 8 are designed to introduce students to laboratory techniques needed to perform all experiments.

In Chapters 7 and 9 through 20, students are required to use the techniques to synthesize compounds and analyze their properties.

In Chapter 21, students are introduced to multi-step syntheses of organic compounds, a practice well known in chemical industry.
