Matter and Change

Matter and Change is a full general chemistry course in one book, written for college students, AP Chemistry students, and anyone returning to the subject. Each chapter teaches the ideas first, derives the math instead of just stating it, and then shows every step of the key calculations in worked examples.The book covers 18 chapters: measurement and units, atomic structure, the periodic table, stoichiometry, bonding and molecular geometry, thermochemistry, gases, liquids and solids, solutions, kinetics, equilibrium, acids, bases and buffers, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, nuclear chemistry, a first look at organic chemistry, and laboratory skills. A mixed review chapter hides each problem’s chapter of origin so you can find your weak spots.Inside you will find 520 original practice problems, each with a complete worked solution and a quick answer key, plus reference tables of physical constants, thermodynamic data, equilibrium constants and reduction potentials, environmental case studies, and a glossary. All you need is a scientific calculator.
