This book is designed to provide a meaningful chemistry laboratory experience for the engineering students. The objectives, principles, experimental procedures, and any technique or safety aspects are reviewed at the beginning of each experiments. It requires students to prepare in advance for the experiments by reading the background information, and the laboratory procedure. The sequence of the experiments is in accordance with the general chemistry lecture material.

After successful completion of the general chemistry laboratory students:
i) gain skills to handle the laboratory equipment,
ii) recognize chemicals, their properties, dangers, their values, influence, and siginificance on our technological society,
iii) record observations and data,
iv) present data in the form of tables, graphs, figures, and
iv) develop a clear perception of the scientific method for analyzing observations.
