About the Book New - Math Essentials provide a review of relevant math skills, offer "just in time" math help, and enable students to refresh math skills specifically needed in the chapter that follows. Math Essentials are four two- to seven-page sections that replace the previous edition's Math Supplement and appear in the text just before students require the corresponding math skills. New - Concept and Connection feature presents students with a quick visual summary of the most important ideas within each chapter. Highlighted in the margin, 10-15 of the most important concepts and connections in each chapter attract students' attention to them. New - 27 Conceptual Questions and Numerical Problems appear in end-of-chapter problems. Revised Numerical Problems are now organized by section number within chapters to make it easier for instructors to create assignments for specific parts of each chapter. Updated - Introductory chapter material makes the importance of the chapter clear to students at the beginning of each chapter with a set of three questions that include responses. Revised - Figures improve clarity with many providing additional annotation to help tie concepts to the visual program.

Key Equations allow students to focus on the most important of the many equations in each chapter. An end-of-chapter table that summarizes Key Equations and flags in red type where the equations appear in the body of the chapter. A Further Reading list , added to each chapter, provides references for students and instructors who would like a deeper understanding of various aspects of the chapter material. Modern applications--drawn from biology, environmental science, and material science-- help give Physical Chemistry immediate relevance to students. An emphasis on problem solving: Numerous Worked Examples and highlighted Key Equations throughout help students understand the math and develop their own problem-solving skills. Concept Questions, Quantitative Problems, and a unique set of problems related to the web-based simulations and animations at the end of each chapter offer students a variety of study and assessment resources. Additional Data Tables , available in an Appendix, that provide a quick reference. Research applications emphasize the dynamic nature of the field and demonstrate the relevance of basic principles.

This package includes Mastering(tm) Chemistry, the teaching and learning platform that empowers you to reach every student. By combining trusted author content with digital tools and a flexible platform, Mastering personalizes the learning experience and often improves results for each student. New - 66 Dynamic Study Modules help students study effectively on their own by continuously assessing their activity and performance in real time. Students complete a set of questions with a unique answer format that also asks them to indicate their confidence level. Questions repeat until the student can answer them all correctly and confidently. These are available as graded assignments prior to class and are accessible on smartphones, tablets, and computers. Tutorials with wrong answer feedback offer students a self-paced learning environment. Tutorial topics include key math skills as well as a refresher of general chemistry concepts such as understanding matter, chemical reactions, and understanding the periodic table and atomic structure.

Topics can be added or removed to match your coverage. Numerous end-of-chapter questions help assess student.
