Opis: Chemistry DeMYSTiFieD - Linda Williams

The proven formula for mastering chemistry Fully updated with all-new quizzes and test questions and a completely refreshed interior design Chemistry DeMYSTiFieD, Second Edition provides an new, intuitive arrangement of topics. The book adds new material that is now part of introductory chemistry curricula and national subject tests such as ACT, SAT, and AP Chemistry. New chapter quizzes, final exam, and glossary, as well as a Periodic Table of Elements, are included. Clear and conversational writing presents science on an accessible level to students and adults alike. The book's content and educational features offer a sound chemistry foundation from which to pursue further scientific education in chemistry and related fields such as biochemistry, environmental science, and thermodynamics. Chemistry DeMYSTiFieD, Second Edition features: Brand new chapters on thermodynamics, biochemistry, and an expanded section on electrochemicals Revised presentation order of topics follows the most current curriculum for chemistry classes and associated ACT/SAT/AP exams Periodic Table of Elements Glossary with all critical terms defined and explained in context of book. Chapter-opening objectives offering insight into what you're going to learn in each step Questions at the end of every chapter to reinforce learning and pinpoint weaknesses "Still Struggling?" icon providing specific recommendations for those having difficulty with certain subtopics A final exam for overall self-assessment "Curriculum Tree" that shows how the topic covered in the book fits into a larger curriculum Hard stuff made easy!
