The Practice of Chemistry - Softcover

Putting chemical knowledge into practice, and making chemical knowledge practical, is the main theme of The Practice of Chemistry. The result of seven years of curriculum development, initiated by a National Science Foundation grant, the text is intended for students with a limited background in math and science and acts a tour guide through the pitfalls of preparatory chemistry. By implementing unique problem solving approaches, a unified organizational theme, and a real-world context, the authors prepare students for the standard general chemistry course, and bright futures as science majors.

Students can't do chemistry if they can't do the math. "The Practice of Chemistry, First Edition" is the only preparatory chemistry text to offer students targeted consistent mathematical support to make sure they understand how to use math (especially algebra) in chemical problem solving. The book's unique focus on actual chemical practice, extensive study tools, and integrated media, makes "The Practice of Chemistry" the most effective way to prepare students for the standard general chemistry course--and bright futures as science majors.
