5.0 out of 5 stars Great Chemistry helper, May 12, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Chemistry (Barron's College Review Series) (Paperback)
This book is very wonderful. If you plan on taking AP Chemistry in High School or if you are taking first year chemistry in Collge, then believe me get this book. This book is so wonderful, it's explanations are teriffic and all the calculations and meanings in the book are easy, with absolutely no nonsense. Along with this book, get Barron's AP Chemistry Review and The Princeton Review for Chemistry, you'll do great on the AP Chemistry Exam. Believe me, if you're taking college Chemistry or need an aide, then you should defintely get this book. Trust me.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good review of Chemistry, January 24, 2009

This review is from: Chemistry (Barron's College Review Series) (Paperback)
I did very well in college chemistry... 30 years ago. Now I want to review, and I've found this book to be the best! I prefer it to my two college textbooks.

It does have a few errors in it. In one example it uses a value for enthalpy that is not the same as given in the appendix in the back, which made me scratch my head for a moment. Later on, in an example where an iodine reaction is being described for an equilibrium constant, a mysterious bromine concentration appears out of nowhere that should have been I2. There seems to be a lot of such errors.

In Chapter 5, about physical chemistry and REACTIONS, I had an "Oh BOY!!" moment when Gibbs free energy was discussed. I didn't remember learning that in college; but I do remember wondering when they would get to it. Then I checked my textbooks, and saw why: while Gibbs FE is in about the middle of this book, it was at the end of both of my college texts, and I don't think we got that far during the semester.

I liked this book so much I bought a second copy and gave it to my son.
