Description
Modern spectroscopic techniques and current research topics make this an incomparable resource for undergraduate and graduate students, presenting a fascinating approach to inorganic chemistry by providing experiments that resemble real research. As a result, students learn to think in a research-oriented fashion and to research together in a group.
The experiments have been thoroughly tested and safety instructions are included, while hazardous substances are replaced by less harmful ones. This new edition also has a special focus on environmentally friendly experiments.
