Chemistry:
A Molecular Approach, 1/E
Nivaldo J. Tro, Westmont College
Introductory
Chemistry Textbook-Second Edition
Introductory Chemistry develops a unique systematic approach to problem
solving using Solutions Maps and multi-column Procedure-Example boxes.
This aptly paced and consistently logical approach will guide the
anxious
and inexperienced students in this course through the process of
solving
chemical problems. Problem solving skills are emphasized throughout
each
chapter, developed through many in-chapter examples, reviewed in unique
chapter summaries, and practiced and synthesized in end-of-chapter
exercises.
The molecular art is groundbreaking in this market—student
visualization
is greatly enhanced. Integrated applications make the chemistry lively
and interesting. This text focuses on the development of basic chemical
principles including chemical bonding, atomic structure, and gas
laws.
