E-Book Overview

Baltimore, United Book Press, 1993. — 567 p.ISBN 0-8412-2725-XThe goals of the five authors of this book, all college chemistry professors, are to demystify materials chemistry and to show that materials are both a source of great opportunities for chemists and a natural vehicle for introducing chemical principles. They believe that the introductory chemistry course can be refreshed and enlivened while providing a firm foundation for understanding the burgeoning field of materials chemistry. Thus, this book provides examples from materials chemistry that illustrate basic chemical principles facilitates integration of solids into the introductory chemistry coursepresents more than 50 easy-to-do demonstrations for teachers describes 15 laboratory experiments for studentsEvery teacher of introductory chemistry can benefit from this book.Chemical Demonstrations: A Sourcebook for Teachers. Volume 1 — By Lee R. Summerlin and James L. Ealy, Jr.Spiral bound, ISBN 0-8412-1481-6, Volume 2 — By Lee R. Summerlin, Christie L. Borgford, and Julie B. Ealy.These books contain demonstrations suitable for use in an introductory chemistry program. The examples, which can be used to introduce many of the major concepts in chemistry, were selected because they are simple, safe, effective, and enjoyable. They are presented in a simple format for quick reference. Teaching tips, including notes and questions to be used with the demonstrations, are also included<strong>ContentsDemonstrationsTopic MatrixPrefaceLaboratory SafetyAn Introduction to Materials ChemistryAtoms and ElectronsStoichiometryDetermination of Structure Using Diffraction DataCommon Crystalline StructuresDefects in SolidsElectronic Structure of Crystalline SolidsChemical Equilibrium: Acid-Base and Redox Analogies in SolidsApplications of Thermodynamics: Phase ChangesSynthesis of MaterialsLaboratory Experiments.
