Provides step-by-step instructions for using common kitchen items to perform basic chemistry experiments involving mass, density, chemical reactions, and acids and bases.
"This is an illustrated book on the topic of chemistry. The entire book is in black and white. This book should be able to be used in a sophomore chemistry course, senior/AP chemistry course, and a freshman college chemistry course. Everything is hand drawn and written giving the book an organic and nonlinear way of learning deep concepts in a more approachable way."--Adapted from Amazon.com.
