About this title

From the Publisher:

This manual provides a variety of time-tested experiments. Forty-eight experiments are offered in the general areas of Thermodynamics, Kinetics and Molecular Structure/Spectroscopy.
Wide selection of traditional and modern experiments, the latter strengthened by the addition of three new experiments.
New chapter on use of spreadsheets and other scientific software show students how to use spreadsheets for plotting.
New chapter on computer interfacing provides a general description of computers and their operation and gives specific details and programs illustrating their interface to experiments.
Extensively revised introductory chapters on preparation for laboratory work and treatment of experimental data.
Up-to-date reference chapters on theory and practice of important physical measurements.
Careful consideration has been given to the description of the experimental procedures to ensure that measurements are meaningful and will lead to results that illustrate physical principles.
Treatment of data measurement, analysis, and presentation is explicitly covered in several chapters with illustrative examples and helpful exercises to make clear the importance of error analysis.
