Deals with acids and bases and liquids, solutions, and colloids, giving detailed descriptions of lecture demonstrations for college and secondary school chemistry classes.

This work offers useful practical advice for teachers of chemistry.

This text lists 69 lecture demonstrations, 110 procedures for displaying chemical phenomena in college and secondary shcool chemistry classes. Each chapter includes an introduction providing the teacher with information about the concepts, terminology and principles relating to the demonstrations.

Using full-colour illustrations, this provides meticulous instructions for safely demonstrating colourful phenomena and illustrating scientific principles. A rich introductory section explores the science of colour and light, outlines the chemical processes of vision, and explains what happens when visual information enters the human eye and is perceived by the brain.
