Descriptive Chemistry

In Descriptive Chemistry the author Lyman C. Newell introduces the reader to a series of experiments that explore the properties and interactions of various chemical substances. The book covers topics such as physical and chemical changes the properties of oxygen and hydrogen the solubility of gases liquids and solids and the effects of heat on different compounds. Through hands-on experiments the reader learns about the behavior of different substances and the chemical reactions that occur when they are combined. The experiments also demonstrate concepts such as supersaturation efflorescence deliquescence and the role of water in chemical reactions. The book provides a practical and engaging way to learn about chemistry and its applications in the real world.
