The updated 9th edition of "Chemical Principles" is a rigorous but understandable introduction to chemistry that will help you learn to think like a chemist and solve problems creatively. Now available in WebAssign, the most powerful online learning system for chemistry, the text features a wide range of tools that will help you succeed in chemistry.
The text teaches students to think like chemists, emphasizing creative problem solving and applying mathematical skills to go beyond simple algorithms.
Assignments in WebAssign help students master core concepts and understand their mistakes with textbook problems, answer-specific feedback, solution videos and more.
Skill-building ChemWork problems — available in WebAssign — support students through the problem-solving process with guidance similar to what an instructor might offer in office hours.
Marathon problems, designed to challenge students, are the capstone of each chapter. They ask students to reason through complex problems and elicit class discussion.
Chemical Insights appearing throughout the text make chemistry relevant to students with applications including superconductivity, laser cooling, nanogenerators and more.
A unique organization leverages students’ math skills to explore acid-base equilibria early in the course. Chapters are flexible so instructors can organize the course in a variety of ways to meet student needs.
The text includes discussions of the exact treatment of buffered solutions (Chapter 8), adiabatic processes (Chapter 10), the mathematics involved in relating the number of microstates to the concept of entropy (Chapter 10), and molecular, rotational, vibrational, electronic, and nuclear magnetic spectroscopy (Chapter 14). These sections provide more depth at a slightly more rigorous level, consistent with the book’s overall focus.
Chemical Insights Boxes. Chemistry comes to life with these inspiring boxes, which cover various applications related to the field of chemistry. Topics include superconductivity, laser cooling, fracking, gorilla glass, nanogenerators, and more.
