GENERAL CHEMISTRY is better than ever with this eleventh edition. It includes essential updates--such as modern artwork, higher integration with OWLv2, revised end-of-chapter questions, added Capstone Problems, narrative revisions, and more--to help you succeed in your chemistry course.
I gave up on the idea of actually trying to do more than "just get by" in my chemistry class, so the term "read" is used loosely when I add it to that shelf.
I used this book to suppliment the required text in my chemistry class. Well written and explanations were concise. Also the authors went into much greater depth than the book required for the class which made things easier at times.
