Laboratory manual in teaching medical chemistry in english language course for the student of medicine and dental medicine
Abstract
Chemistry is an experimental science. it is not an inanimate science, but one that help us to understand the behavior of living systems. This manual was designed especially to follow the lecture portion of the student class. The laboratory activities include materials that students may be familiar with, such as household products, drinks, and various medicines. in such way, chemical topics are related to the real world and to the student’s own science experience. Some of the lab exercises teach basic skills while others encourage students to extend scientific curiosity beyond the lab. The laboratory class gives an opportunity to go beyond the lectures and words in the textbook and experience the scientific processes from which conclusions and theories concerning chemical behavior are drawn. The concepts of some experiments have health and biological aspects.
