5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent referrence book for college chemistry.
I have used this book as a referrence numerous times when I needed to reinforce my understanding of certain problems. Most college text books do not provide enough (or varied) chemistry problems. This book may help you in that arena. The chapters may not go in order with the text that you are using but each section is very simple to find. The book claims to take you...

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as it could be
1. No review of subject - only solved problems
2. Not keyed in with Schaum's College Chemistry which does have some basic theory - so you will be doing them out of order with some texts.
3. No unsolved problems to work on to test yourself.

The thing I love about Schaum's outline series is they give you a brief discussion of theory, then a few...

By A Customer
This review is from: 3,000 Solved Problems in Chemistry (Schaum's Solved Problems) (Schaum's Solved Problems Series) (Paperback)
I have used this book as a referrence numerous times when I needed to reinforce my understanding of certain problems. Most college text books do not provide enough (or varied) chemistry problems. This book may help you in that arena. The chapters may not go in order with the text that you are using but each section is very simple to find. The book claims to take you all the way through to the most advanced chemistry problems. This book may even be useful in brushing up for your MCAT. Good luck.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dispite the reviews, I really like this book..., October 7, 2008

This review is from: 3,000 Solved Problems in Chemistry (Schaum's Solved Problems) (Schaum's Solved Problems Series) (Paperback)
I'm currently taking college chemistry. Book consists of 3000 questions with various general chemistry topics. Ampule amount of questions for each topic and complexity. Answers/soutions provided right below questions. Useful(at least for me)because I don't have to flip through the back of the book for answers. In addition, since my textbook only have even numbered questions with just answers on the back of the book, I can use this book to reflect to similar problems.

If you need practice with chemistry problems, (esp. when you are a science major in college/university) I would recommend this book. (If your just in high school, your textbook and study guide would be fine.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Phenomenal reference for science majors, July 21, 2011
By 
Lucy Cat "Mandy" (Charlottesville, VA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
I acquired a copy of "3000 Problems" while I was an undergraduate chemistry major and I continue to use regularly it even into graduate school. This is an outstanding reference for hundreds of *solved* chemistry problems for virtually every topic covered in general chemistry. I would highly suggest this book for science majors / chemistry majors in addition to (or in lieu of) a solutions manual for your regular textbook. This book provides an indexed and highly organized reference for learning to solve chemistry problems by example. I used to use this to prepare for exams and found it to be a great study aid.

Overall: a great value and a wise investment. A+

The book has sample problems in all aspect of chemistry.Very beneficial to high school and early college chemistry.Students are guided through very interseting questions followed by possible questions under a given topic with solutions to cross check.I highly recommend this book to beginners in chemistry as well as advaanced chemistry students as a guide.

This review is from: 3,000 Solved Problems in Chemistry (Schaum's Solved Problems) (Schaum's Solved Problems Series) (Paperback)
1. No review of subject - only solved problems
2. Not keyed in with Schaum's College Chemistry which does have some basic theory - so you will be doing them out of order with some texts.
3. No unsolved problems to work on to test yourself.

The thing I love about Schaum's outline series is they give you a brief discussion of theory, then a few problems solved in great detail and then several more just like it with the answer but no detail for you to figure out. This book doesn't do that - each problem is solved in moderate detail and some are fairly complex so you have to be pretty sure of what they are talking about before you tackle the problem. The problems increase in difficulty within each chapter so it has some tutorial aspect there.

I would use this for review after I've completed my text and the Schaum's College Chemistry or to hunt some problem that stumped me in my textbook to see how to do it.
