Lab-At-Home Experiments in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. This item is unavailable.Lab-At-Home Experiments in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering

With the rise of remote and hybrid learning, there is an increasing need for flexibility around laboratory‑based coursework. This book offers readers a guide to conducting a wide variety of chemistry and chemical engineering labs and experimental procedures that can be completed easily and safely outside of a traditional lab setting, including at home. It helps students and interested readers achieve hands‑on learning of chemistry‑ and chemical engineering‑based concepts without the need for sophisticated lab equipment.

• Features a comprehensive range of labs on such topics as separation processes, CO2 capture, 3D printing, reaction kinetics, and fuel cells
• Includes detailed information on how to perform experiments at home via virtual experimental procedures and accompanying videos
• Uses household and readily accessible materials and provides safe material handling and disposal methods
• Offers solution spreadsheets where experimental results can be computed and validated
• Gives background information and relevant theory about each experiment and includes exercises at the end of each chapter
• Provides Python code and instructions on how to perform experiments, including a bowling example

This practical and useful guide is aimed at chemistry and chemical engineering students as well as general readers interested in running experiments in these disciplines. Video supplements to support comprehension of each lab and a solutions spreadsheet for Chapter 1 are available for download.
