Chemtrek is a laboratory text designed for use by students in a two-semester general chemistry laboratory program for science majors at the college or university level. The chapter topics have been selected to complement areas of chemistry normally presented in an introductory science major's lecture course.
Chemtrek presents an entirely new, innovative, small-scale, inexpensive, safe, efficient, and extremely effective way to get students involved in the excitement and promise of experimental chemistry.
Section C in Experiment 3 was relocated to become Section G. Existing questions and sections were renumbered. Some material in the front matter were removed from the previous 2019 - 2020 edition. Some sections were renamed. Some new illustrations were inserted where consistency needed improvement.
