Inorganic Chemistry?! What's that?! Don't worry. Robert Gardner makes it easy to understand: Inorganic simply describes things that are not made of plant or animal matter. (Those things are ORGANIC). Does a cup of water weigh the same whether it is liquid or frozen? What causes iron to rust? Can salt conduct electricity? The answer to all of these questions can be found by doing the experiments in this book. Young scientists will observe and create their own chemical changes and reactions. For those interested in competing in science fairs, the book contains lots of great suggestions and ideas for further experiments.
