Book Description

December 3, 2008 0547125321 978-0547125329 8
CHEMISTRY allows the reader to learn chemistry basics quickly and easily by emphasizing a thoughtful approach built on problem solving. For the Eighth Edition, authors Steven and Susan Zumdahl have extended this approach by emphasizing problem-solving strategies within the Examples and throughout the text narrative. CHEMISTRY speaks directly to the reader about how to approach and solve chemical problems--to learn to think like a chemist--so that they can apply the process of problem-solving to all aspects of their lives.

3.0 out of 5 stars 95% makes sense..5% what?, January 8, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Chemistry (Hardcover)
Most of this book is pretty straight forward, but at times, its a little contradictory and unclear. For instance, in Chapter 18 which includes Electrochemistry, sometimes the problems take into account water and sometimes they don't, and they don't address that problem at all so it leaves me frustrated. Sometimes it almost seems like the examples and concepts were taught pretty clearly, but when the problems came around, I was caught off guard by how awkward the questions were and the assumptions some of them had me make.
