Rate this book
DIGITAL UPDATE available for Fall 2020 classes The Pearson eText and Mastering have been updated to provide new author-written content that actively engages students every step of the way in becoming expert problem solvers.

For courses in two-semester general chemistry.
An atoms-first approach that actively engages students in learning chemistry and becoming expert problem solvers With Chemistry: Structure and Properties , author Nivaldo Tro incorporates his engaging and precise narrative to tell the story of chemistry with an atoms-first approach. This approach emphasizes that matter is particulate -- composed of molecules -- and the structure of those particles determines the properties of matter. The relationship of structure affecting properties is the thread that weaves all of chemistry together, and this theme is applied to all aspects of the text, from content and organization to art and pedagogy. The book presents chemistry as a logical, cohesive story from the microscopic to the macroscopic, so students can fully grasp the theories and framework behind the chemical facts.
Personalize learning with Modified Mastering Chemistry By combining trusted author content with digital tools and a flexible platform, Mastering personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student. Mastering Chemistry provides an extension of learning, allowing students a platform to practice, learn, and apply knowledge outside of the classroom.

If I have to read this for over half of my summer break you bet your ass I’m including it. Also not a bad book to learn chemistry I won’t lie.

This book, although very detailed, is very difficult to learn from if you are a beginner. Unless you are really good at math, can understand complex logic quickly, or have a good foundation for chemistry, this book is very confusing. But for people who are solid in math and chemistry and logic, the book should be fine to learn from. But even my college professor did not like using the book, as it introduces complex topics much too early. Chemistry needs a book that is easier to understand, and this one doesn’t quite do that.

I am being so deadass when I say this has been my best college textbook ever. ESPECIALLY through Pearson.
