Opis: Chemistry: Structure and Properties: Global Edition - Nivaldo Tro

For two-semester general chemistry courses Bestselling author Niva Tro has always believed "the behavior of matter is determined by the properties of molecules and atoms" to be the most important discovery in scientific knowledge. This idea is the entire factor for his seminal new text-Chemistry: Structure and Properties. Dr. Tro emphasizes the relationship between structure and properties, establishes a unique approach to teaching chemistry by presenting atomic and bonding theories early in the text, and stresses key themes throughout. The book is organized to present chemistry as a logical, cohesive story from the microscopic to the macroscopic, so students can fully grasp the theories and framework behind the chemical facts. Every topic has been carefully crafted to convey to students that the relationship between structure and properties is the thread that weaves all of chemistry together. While developed independently of other Tro texts, Chemistry: Structure and Properties incorporates the author's vivid writing style, chemical rigor, dynamic multi-level images, and tested features. His consistent conceptual focus and step-by-step problem-solving framework encourages students to think through processes rather than simply memorize content. This program presents a better teaching and learning experience-for you and your students. *Developed with a central theme and by a teaching community: As part of a community that teaches with the understanding that matter is composed of particles and the structure of those particles determines the properties of matter, Dr. Tro took great lengths in the text to ensure that everything from organization, art, and pedagogy reinforce this theme. The result of this emphasis is that the topic order has been constructed to make key connections earlier, stronger, and more often than the traditional approach. *Linking conceptual understanding with problem-solving skills: Throughout each chapter, numerous Conceptual Connections encourage comprehension of the most complex concepts while a consistent step-by-step framework in the worked examples allows students to think logically through the problem-solving process. *Visualizing and understanding chemistry: Revolutionary multipart images illustrate and reinforce the theme of the text and allow students to see and experience the molecules responsible for the structures and properties of matter.1 Atoms 2 Measurement, Problem Solving, and the Mole Concept 3 The Quantum-Mechanical Model of the Atom 4 Periodic Properties of the Elements 5 Molecules and Compounds 6 Chemical Bonding I: Drawing Lewis Structures and Determining Molecular Shapes 7 Chemical Bonding II: Valence Bond Theory and Molecular Orbital Theory 8 Chemical Reactions and Chemical Quantities 9 Introduction to Solutions and Aqueous Reactions 10 Thermochemistry 11 Gases 12 Liquids, Solids, and Intermolecular Forces 13 Phase Diagrams and Crystalline Solids 14 Solutions 15 Chemical Kinetics 16 Chemical Equilibrium 17 Acids and Bases 18 Aqueous Ionic Equilibrium 19 Free Energy and Thermodynamics 20 Electrochemistry 21 Radioactivity and Nuclear Chemistry 22 Organic Chemistry 23 Transition Metals and Coordination Compounds Appendix I The Units of Measurement Appendix II Significant Figures Appendix III Common Mathematical Operations in Chemistry Appendix IV Useful Data Appendix V Answers to Selected Exercises Appendix VI Answers to In-Chapter Practice Problems Glossary Credits Index
