Introduction to Chemistry Laboratory Techniques

We've learned a lot of chemistry together, but now it's time to jump into the lab and put it to use! What are some common techniques that every chemistry student and budding chemist must know? Let's go through these step-by-step, with real demonstrations, so that you can nail the lab component of your chemistry course, or even prepare for your own research!

Check out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!

As a chemistry undergraduate who hasn't had enough laboratory practice in university, I am more than excited about following this series! Professor Dave, you're a real savior!

[OrchestratedChicanery]

Thanks for everything Professor Dave. I have been a subscriber for a long time. Also, please never stop making these amazing videos!

I have a PhD in chemistry and loved carrying out synthesis. There’s something about putting your glassware together and running a reaction that is wonderful

[Stop-and-listen]

I got my kick in chemistry by watching Breaking Bad.

Professor Dave is the best teacher on YouTube.

It is so much fun working in the lab...used to be a welder, now I'm a labtech..best choice I ever made! Particularly enjoy synthesis and GC..

Professor Dave, I can't express how much I'm grateful for your videos. Your explanations are so clear and concise, it's hard not to understand them. I can't thank you enough especially for you Calculus playlist; it helped me understand so much in such a short amount of time. And thanks to that, I managed to Ace my mathematics university entrance exam! Once again, thank you!

As high school student I can say for sure, that without additional chemical courses that I took for two years (and will take for one more this year), chemistry wouldn't be that fun for me. Especially because during last year I carried out my very own chemistry project about transparent conductive films based on silver nanowires. Chemistry in the lab is way more educating than chemistry in the class (at least for me), but sadly not everyone has opportunity to do it.

Methinks we're about to gain a new friend in Dr. Muhoza! Thanks for helping us understand chemistry in the real world, Dr. Muhoza! Looking forward to this series, Professor Dave.

YES! I can learn some techniques and procedures to advance my science!! I need to buy tools! Best educational channel ever!!!

Hello, I have recently begun studying at University again after the lockdowns, and am just now delving into chemistry as the major/honour I want to pursue. I have watched both your academic and social content for some time now but I feel I can finally put it to proper use! Thank you greatly

[Heleous]

This is actually awesome....More of this is needed throughout the science community..JOVE has a stranglehold on this market

[JOINTLAB-]

Also as a chemical laboratory equipments dealer, this is super interesting!

[Drakeblood]

This will definitely be useful in my somewhat unique situation as well. I work as a full-time analyst but haven't finished my degree yet, so I'm sort of substituting formal education with experience.

[brendenirving]

can already tell im going to love this series

[ohitsbaby]

I'm starting my second year and in first year we was always paired up in the lab but from 2nd year onwards we do all lab work on our own so this will come in handy for me. I'm still learning techniques so I'm looking forward to this playlist. I learnt most techniques I know so far through mistakes that ended up on the floor or me.

Wow, exactly what I was looking for. I've been getting more and more interested in chemistry recently.

Hello Dear Prof. Dave
Thank you for helping us to learn (Chemistry Laboratory Techniques) we need more.

[DexieTheSheep]

gonna be taking chemistry this year, and school starts in less than a week from now. pretty cool

[universeusa]

Professor Dave, you always make me think 🤔 with your incredible videos. Thank you!
