Chemistry: Atoms First

Description

Книга обеспечивает последовательный и логичный метод обучения общей химии. Этот подход начинается с фундаментального строительного блока материи - атома и использует его как ступеньку для понимания более сложных тем химии. После постижения природы атомов и электронов рассматривается образование и свойства соединений. Только после изучения материи и атома у студентов будет достаточно опыта, чтобы полностью заниматься такими темами, как стехиометрия, кинетика, равновесие и термодинамика. The Atoms First approach provides a consistent and logical method for teaching general chemistry. This approach starts with the fundamental building block of matter, the atom, and uses it as the stepping stone to understanding more complex chemistry topics. Once mastery of the nature of atoms and electrons is achieved, the formation and properties of compounds are developed. Only after the study of matter and the atom will students have sufficient background to fully engage in topics such as stoichiometry, kinetics, equilibrium, and thermodynamics. Thus, the Atoms First approach empowers instructors to present the most complete and compelling story of general chemistry. Far from a simple re-ordering of topics, this is a book that will truly meet the needs of the growing atoms-first market. The third edition continues to build on the innovative success of the first and second editions. Changes to this edition include specific refinements intended to augment the student-centered pedagogical features that continue to make this book effective and popular both with professors, and with their students.
