* Using products: This manual is unique and different from all others in the market in that all of the experiments it contains can be done with chemicals and reagents found in drugstores, supermarkets, or convenience stores. * Using products: When possible, experiments are simply modified to utilize household chemicals.
Chemistry: An Everyday Approach to Chemical Investigation is intended to accompany any mainstream general chemistry course, and consists of 27 experiments that can be completed using only chemicals found in consumer products. The manual is an ideal resource for courses emphasizing green chemistry in which the use of hazardous materials is reduced or eliminated altogether. Many of the experiments requiring simple equipment and glassware can be performed at remote sites providing laboratory experience for use with on-line or long distance learning courses.  The advantages of using accessible materials in chemistry laboratory are considerable. Students can reinforce lecture discussions while working with familiar materials.  For instructors, assembling the chemicals required for a lab course can be accomplished with limited budgets and without access to a chemical company. Problems with safety and waste disposal are significantly reduced.

Dr. Sally D. Solomon is a professor of Chemistry and has been teaching at Drexel University for 20 yrs. While balancing her classes, she is involved in philanthropic causes including, Science In Motion (SIM). It is funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and provides equipment and materials for high school chemistry and middle school earth science classes. Her research interests include organic synthesis, molecular spectroscopy, and Chemical Education: Courseware development.
