This text is written specifically for secondary chemistry syllabuses in East and Central Africa. Throughout this comprehensive text the concepts, experiments and application of chemistry in modern Africa are clearly presented. Extensive examples from East Africa have been used, and there are appendices on areas which can sometimes cause students problems such as drawing graphs, examination techniques and laboratory safety. This textbook is designed to meet the theoretical and practical needs of students studying chemistry for secondary examinations and beyond, and should be a useful reference source for teachers.
