Chemistry with CBL

by Dan D. Holmquist, Jack Randall, and Donald L. Volz
This lab book contains 36 experiments using pH Sensors, Temperature Probes, Pressure Sensors, Conductivity Probes, Colorimeters, and Voltage Probes. Chemistry with CBL was written for the TI-82, TI-83, TI-85, TI-86, and TI-92 graphing calculators, but it can also be used with the TI-73, TI-83 Plus, and TI-92 Plus graphing calculators. Whether your chemistry class is high school or college, Advanced Placement or ChemCom, honors or general chemistry, you should find a large number of experiments in this book that match the scope and objectives of your course.

Microsoft Word (Macintosh) or Word for Windows files, with all text, figures, and tables, are included on disk. This means you can edit the files for your particular classroom situation. Also included on disk is the data-collection program CHEMBIO. This program is used to monitor sensor readings, collect data in real time, or collect data as a prompted input (e.g., pH vs. volume). As many as three sensors can be used at once.
