本書序言

●Updated! Before: Key Math Skills introduced in the previous edition are now connected with a dynamic study module that teaches students to write numbers in scientific notation and discusses dimensional analysis.
Topics introduced in Key Math Skills include behavior of atoms in the formation of ionic and molecular compounds, stoichiometry, gas laws, calculating solutions or dilutions, PV=NRT-type problems, pH concentration and calculations, and equilibrium and K.
During: Learning Catalytics questions have been increased to include 10 per chapter.
After: Questions relate more closely to real life, engaging students deeper into the subject matter.
InteractiveVideos now correspond to a key concept/topic in most chapters, giving students an opportunity to reinforce what they just learned through visual learning.
NEW AND UPDATED! Chapter Openers provide timely examples and engaging, topical issues of chemistry that is part of contemporary professions.
Follow-Up Stories provide follow-up to the discussion in the chapter opener and include application questions. This narrative helps students stay engaged in the content and, utilizing the new chemistry content, connects the key concepts and problem solving to an overarching theme.
Engage feature asks students to think about the paragraph they are reading and to test their understanding by answering the Engage question in the margin, which is related to the topic.
“Try It First” feature precedes the Solution section of each Sample Problem, encouraging students to work on the problem before reading the given Solution and helping them learn to recall new ideas.
Connect feature added to Analyze the Problem boxes indicates the relationships between Given and Need.
A new topic with questions and problems on Hess's Law was added to Chapter 9.

本書特色

A simple, cumulative approach to basic chemistry concepts

  • Accessible language, visual aids, and a gentle pace help mixed-major students embrace and understand the key concepts and formulas of general chemistry.
  • A focus on developing fundamental math skills assists students in approaching problems with ease.

Deeper integration with the MasteringChemistry eText presents opportunities for learning before, during, and after class

  • Updated! Before: Key Math Skills introduced in the previous edition are now connected with a dynamic study module that teaches students to write numbers in scientific notation and discusses dimensional analysis.
    • NEW!Topics introduced in Key Math Skills include behavior of atoms in the formation of ionic and molecular compounds, stoichiometry, gas laws, calculating solutions or dilutions, PV=NRT-type problems, pH concentration and calculations, and equilibrium and K.

A strong emphasis on problem solving

  • Guides to Problem Solving (GPS) illustrate the steps needed to solve a problem and provide a visual guide for students to use in solving future problems.  Color-coded Guide to Problem Solvingare provided for each problem type in the text, directing students through the steps and strategy for each kind of problem they will encounter.
  • NEW!  “Try It First” feature precedes the Solution section of each Sample Problem, encouraging students to work on the problem before reading the given Solution and helping them learn to recall new ideas.
  • Analyze the Problems convert a word problem into components for problem solving. NEW! Connect features specify information that relates the Given and Need sections in Analyze the Problems to help students identify and connect the components within a word problem and set up a solution strategy.
  • Combining Ideas are sets of integrated problems placed after every two or four chapters to help students test their understanding of the concepts from previous chapters by integrating topics.
  • Answers to study check and odd-numbered problems allow students to reference their work and monitor their understanding of chapter topics.
  • Sample Problems illustrate worked-out solutions with explanations and required calculations to guide students through each type of problem. Study Checks associated with each Sample Problem allow students to check their problem-solving strategies with the Answer.
  • Understanding the Concepts, at the end of each chapter, are questions with visual representations that build an understanding of newly learned chemical concepts.
  • Challenge Questions at the end of each chapter provide complex questions that promote critical thinking, group work, and cooperative learning environments.
  • Study Check questions within each sample problem help students review problem-solving strategy and their comprehension of the material.
  • Paired Problem Sets encourage students to review the information in each chapter before moving on to new material.
