Provided are 45 experiments in chemistry which have been used successfully by students in secondary school chemistry classrooms. Additional investigations directed at further inquiry on the part of the student are included. The experiments are directed at the development of science process skills and many of the concepts and generalizations which underlie the study of chemistry. Also included are an equipment list, information on laboratory safety, the use and care of laboratory equipment, comments on the preparation of a laboratory report, and a glossary. (RS)
