general chemistry

General Chemistry, Quantitative and Qualitative Laboratory Experiments 2E  280 pages, 25 Experiments, 25 Prelaboratories, Resource database, 4 Appendices

This second edition continues and expands upon the laboratory exercises and pedagogic philosophy of General Chemistry Quantitative and Qualitative Laboratory Experiments. New features include a thermochemistry experiment exploring the solvation of urea, an updated and revised Laboratory Equipment and Techniques section, selective report questions, prelaboratory exercises, and Further Reading references. Thus, this text, like its predecessor, provides qualitative and quantitative laboratory exercises to serve the needs of a one-year general chemistry program. Table of Contents and Sample Chapter  

algebra

Fundamentals of Algebra, 179 pages, 6 chapters

The Fundamentals of Algebra is designed as a refresher for entering college freshmen. Some of these students encounter difficulties when taking an Algebra and Trigonometry I course because they have forgotten essential mathematics taught in High School Algebra I and Algebra II. Based on the experience of the authors, this textbook reviews all the essential mathematical concepts that will reinforce these students’ foundations and will help them succeed in all college level mathematics courses. As a result, they will be able to confidently consider any major and succeed in it. The textbook uses real world practical problems that emphasize the usefulness of mathematics.

Physical Science

Physical Science 101, Quantitative and Qualitative Laboratory Experiments, Southern University Edition 126 pages, 11 Experiments, 11 Prelaboratories, Resource database, 3 Appendices

Physical Science 101 is a custom manual designed for use by the Physical Science program at Southern University Baton Rouge. It provides qualitative and quantitative physics and chemistry laboratory exercises to serve the needs of a one-semester physical science program. This text was written in the belief that laboratory studies are an essential part of undergraduate education. Each experiment has a well-defined objective that underscores a basic scientific tenet while providing a reliable, reproducible and satisfying result. Table of Contents and Sample Chapter

chemistry demonstrations

Commonwealth Chemical Demonstrations Quantitative and Qualitative Laboratory Experiments, Southern University Edition 263 pages, 27 Chapters, Literature References, Resource database, Video database available, 3 Appendices

This monograph compiles one hundred twenty different chemical demonstrations and twenty-four displays that were available from a variety of sources to the General Chemistry Program in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Kentucky. It provides faculty with a technology-based road map grounded in fundamental chemical tenets. It is a tool for instructors to kindle intellectual curiosity in students and provide them with a clearer understanding of chemistry. High definition videos are available for highly exothermic (e.g., Thermite), cryogenic (e.g., Paramagnetism and the Blue Color of Liquid Oxygen), or otherwise challenging demonstrations (e.g., Triple Point of Carbon Dioxide.).

Custom Printing and Content

We will build a manual around exercises within your own portfolio of laboratory experiments. Indeed, we can supplement your efforts from our inventory of well- tested experiments. customize This strategy may be useful to faculty seeking unique, innovative and effective instructional publications. Schools likeDepartments at Tuskegee University, Southern University at Baton Rouge, and the University of the Virgin Islands are using a custom version of the General Chemistry text.

Empire Science Resources provides a customized laboratory manual in support of the specific needs of a general chemistry program of any size or complexity.

University of the Virgin Islands Example

This custom manual offers qualitative and quantitative laboratory exercises to serve the needs of the one-year general chemistry program at the University of the Virgin Islands (UVI). We built the manual around exercises within the UVI portfolio of laboratory experiments, supplementing their efforts from our inventory of well-tested experiments. This strategy may be useful to faculty seeking unique, innovative and effective instructional publications.  Thus, we can provide a customized laboratory manual in support of the specific needs of a general chemistry program of any size or complexity.
