SynopsisThe demonstrations capture interest, teach, inform, fascinate, amaze, and perhaps, most importantly, involve students in chemistry. Nowhere else will you find books that answer, "How come it happens? . . . Is it safe? . . . What do I do with all the stuff when the demo is over?" Shakhashiri and his collaborators offer 282 chemical demonstrations arranged in 11 chapters. Each demonstration includes seven sections: a brief summary, a materials list, a step-by-step account of procedures to be used, an explanation of the hazards involved, information on how to store or dispose of the chemicals used, a discussion of the phenomena displayed and principles illustrated by the demonstration, and a list of references., The demonstrations capture interest, teach, inform, fascinate, amaze, and perhaps, most importantly, involve students in chemistry.

", Bassam Shakhashiri's series of handbooks has been acclaimed ever since this first volume appeared in 1983. Teachers have discovered, to their delight, that Shakhashiri's demonstrations fascinate, amaze, and teach students the wonders of chemistry. Volume 1 includes demonstrations of thermochemistry, chemiluminescence, polymers, and color and equilibria of metal ion precipitates and complexes. All demonstrations are in the clear & helpful format used in all the volumes: brief description, materials list, preparation procedures, instructions for presentations, important information about potential hazards and safe disposal, and thorough and lucid discussions of the phenomena displayed and principles illustrated.
