Advanced Chemistry with Vernier contains 35 experiments appropriate for AP* Chemistry or college general chemistry. Use it in addition to Vernier Chemistry Investigations for Use with AP* Chemistry for a comprehensive set of topics.
Desctiption
The Advanced Chemistry with Vernier lab book includes 35 advanced chemistry experiments designed for use with Vernier data-collection technology. There are four student versions for each experiment: Logger Pro, LabQuest App, Easy Data App, and a generic version that covers all platforms. The following Vernier sensors are used in this book: Temperature Probe, pH Sensor, Conductivity Probe, Drop Counter, Colorimeter, Gas Pressure Sensor, Current Probe, ORP Sensor, and Radiation Monitor.
Starting with the 2013–2014 school year, the AP Chemistry Course Description recommended labs have been reduced from 22 to 16 and at least six of the 16 experiments should be an inquiry-based model of instruction. Advanced Chemistry with Vernier provides a variety of experiments for the additional 10 non-inquiry experiments.
