Book Description
Essentials of General Chemistry is an ideal choice for instructors who want a shorter, less expensive core text that still supports a typical general chemistry course. Since the text covers the same topical scope as Ebbing/Gammon General Chemistry, it also presents an attractive option for the growing number of one-semester general chemistry courses. The book is priced 25% below most full-sized general chemistry texts.
The Essentials text retains all of the hallmark qualities of its parent text, including its ability to teach quantitative problem solving, its focus on conceptual understanding and visualization, and its state-of-the-art technology package. Its art program focuses on molecular-level depictions of macro-level phenomena.
- The text features a consistent and proven approach to problem-solving. Each problem-solving skill is introduced in a worked-out "Example." Most of these examples include a "Problem Strategy." Each Example is followed by a list of corresponding end-of-chapter "Practice Problems, " which reinforce skills and concepts.
- "A Chemist Looks At" boxes connect chemistry to the real world by highlighting its applications to medicine/health, frontiers of science, the environment, and everyday life.
- Chapter 13, "Solid Materials of Modern Technology," includes information of particular value to engineering students.
