John Kenkel

Basic Chemistry Concepts and Exercises (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Bringing the wisdom of John Kenkel's more than 35 years of teaching experience, this volume communicates the fundamentals of chemistry in a practical, down-to-earth manner. Using conversational language and logically assembled graphics, the book concisely introduces each topic without overwhelming students with unnecessary detail. Example problems and end-of-chapter questions emphasize repetition of concepts, preparing students to become adept at the basics before they progress to an advanced general chemistry course. Enhanced with visualization techniques such as the first chapter's mythical microscope, the book clarifies challenging, abstract ideas and stimulates curiosity into what can otherwise be an overwhelming topic.
