Solutions Manual For Environmental Chemistry

This guide to environmental chemistry covers major topical issues, including the greenhouse effect, the ozone layer, pesticides, and air and water pollution. The text offers an active problem-solving approach, with exercises incorporated throughout each chapter.

This manual contains the worked solutions to the end-of-chapter problems presented in the parent undergraduate textbook, Enviromental Chemistry by van Loon and Duffy. Problem solving is an indispensible aspect of learning, giving students a feel for the quantities involved and how to manipulate them. These worked problems supplement the main book.

Contains complete solutions for all in-chapter problems.

The present book is meant for the students who opt for a course in Environmental Chemistry with laboratory work as a component of the course. Spread in 72 experiments the analyses of soil, water and air have been described in a simple manner so that most of these experiments can be conducted even by the beginners in this subject. The principles involved, preparation of the reagents and the procedures are described for each experimental method. The authors hope that this manual would prove to be useful in laboratories where soil, water and air are routinely tested
