Modern Chemical Techniques

Modern Chemical Techniques

Useful book to explain some modern techniques and video to illustrate what the instruments involved look like and how they are used. There is a five-minute video clip for each technique, and corresponding chapter of the book.

The book is designed to give teachers and students an introduction to the basic theories behind the techniques without delving too deeply into the Mathematics and Physics involved. More advanced ideas are included for the keen reader, but in boxes so they may be easily omitted without disadvantaging other readers. Some exercises on each technique are provided in the book.

Techniques covered are:

  • mass spectrometry
  • nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy
  • infrared spectroscopy
  • chromatography
  • electron microscopy
  • following synthetic routes
