Organic Chemistry Laboratory Experiments I

Teaching and learning chemistry is a big challenge. Especially in the laboratory, it requires a lot of effort from both the professor and the student. The magic of learning chemistry over any other science is that it can be learned through observation. Chemistry is the perfect combination of theory and experiment, observation and interpretation, and is at the heart of the positive sciences. Our goal in writing the organic chemistry lab guide is to present a series of organic chemistry experiments that are representative of a fairly wide range of the field of organic chemistry. Through experiments, students are exposed to the basic principles of organic chemistry. The experiments are designed so that a multifaceted study is conducted to interpret each experiment through a literature search. In this way, students in each field can analyze and deepen their knowledge from the perspective of their interests. This lab guide includes 3 experimental modules and over 5 lab exercises.
