(in all seriousness, was genuinely helpful for bringing back concepts back from freshman intro chem that i had all but forgotten in a slightly pedantic, minutiae-oriented but nevertheless insightful way)
This review is for the 3rd edition--I don't have the 4th edition, but it's the only one on goodreads
3.5 stars
Not enough practice questions of common equations--it's practice questions generally focused on exceptions to rules and combining equations. Not one example question where you actually use the free energy equation as-is, or the standard equilibrium equation.
