By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: New York : John Wiley & Son, Inc., c1990Edition: 5th edDescription: xviii, 852 pages : color illustrations ; 26 cmSubject(s): LOC classification:
  • QD 31.2 .B7 1990
Contents:
Part 1. The basics of chemistry and chemical reactions -- Part 2. The structure of matter and the origin of chemical periodicity -- Part 3. Physical properties and the states of matter -- Part 4. Factors that control the outcome of reactions -- Part 5. Survey of the chemistry of the elements -- Part 6. Nuclear reactions and their role in chemistry.
Summary: The Fifth Edition retains the pedagogical strengths that made the previous editions so popular, and has been updated, reorganized, and streamlined. Changes include more accessible introductory chapters (with greater stress on the logic of the periodic table), earlier introduction of redox reactions, greater emphasis on the concept of energy, a new section on Lewis structures, earlier introduction of the ideal gas law, and a new development of thermodynamics. Each chapter ends with review questions and problems.
