High School Chem Lab Manual from 1960's


I recently found an on-line copy of the CHEM Study laboratory manual used in the 1960's (the good old days?) I remember this book well and had a copy of it in my basement lab. In any event, I thought that beginners and old hands alike might enjoy this book. Indeed, there are quite a few interesting experiments that can be run in the home lab described. Also note what we would call today the lack of chemophobia in many of the experiments - chemistry was fun AND informative. No baking soda and vinagar experiments! I hope that you will find this enjoyable.

What a great book !

Thanks for taking the trouble to share it.

Page 18 : use simple apparatus to heat the crap out of 7 different substances at once to see what melts/smokes/burns/glows red hot.

Now that is a very good way to grab the attention !

This looks great AvB. Thanks.
I will print it out early in the new year and scavenge its contents for ideas that I can give to my students.

Hey, I have that book! And the classroom text, with the teacher's manual.

If I had a scanner, I'd be happy to share!

One of the interesting book that use for high school chemistry class is "The Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments"
I really enjoy it
(i think maybe it was used in USA high school for teaching chemistry )

you can download it at bookzz.org
