Taking an exploratory approach to chemistry, this hands-on lab manual for preparatory chemistry encourages critical thinking and allows students to make discoveries as they experiment.  The sequence of the experiments in the manual is designed to fit closely with the Eighth Edition of Basic Concepts of Chemistry, by Jack Malone and Ted Dolter. A set of exercises provides students with additional opportunities to test their understanding of key concepts in introductory and prep chemistry courses.  Additional online exercises are available on the Web at www.wiley.com/college/murov.
