These experiments are designed to be used in college or university level laboratory courses, and should not be conducted unless there is an appropriate level of supervision, safety training, personal protective equipment and other safety facilities available for users. The publisher and authors believe that the lab experiments described in this manual, when conducted in conformity with the safety precautions described herein and according to appropriate laboratory safety procedures, are reasonably safe for students for whom this manual is directed. Nonetheless, many of the experiments are accompanied by some degree of risk, including human error, the failure or misuse of laboratory or electrical equipment, mis-measurement, spills of chemicals, and exposure to sharp objects, heat, blood, body fluids or other liquids. The publisher and authors disclaim any liability arising from such risks in connection with any of the experiments in the manual. Any users of this manual assume responsibility and risk associated with conducting any of the experiments set forth herein. If students have questions or problems with materials, procedures, or instructions on any experiment, they should always ask their instructor for immediate help before proceeding.
