Contents:
UNIT 1: INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF MODERN CHEMISTRY -- 1. The Atom in Modern Chemistry -- 2. Chemical Formulas, Chemical Equations, and Reaction Yields -- UNIT 2: CHEMICAL BONDING AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE -- 3. Chemical Bonding: The Classical Description -- 4. Introduction to Quantum Mechanics -- 5. Quantum Mechanics and Atomic Structure -- 6. Quantum Mechanics and Molecular Structure -- 7. Bonding in Organic Molecules -- 8. Bonding in Transition Metal Compounds and Coordination Complexes -- UNIT 3: KINETIC MOLECULAR DESCRIPTION OF THE STATES OF MATTER -- 9. The Gaseous State -- 10. Solids, Liquids, and Phase Transitions -- 11. Solutions -- UNIT 4: EQUILIBRIUM IN CHEMICAL REACTIONS -- 12. Thermodynamic Processes and Thermochemistry -- 13. Spontaneous Processes and Thermodynamic Equilibrium -- 14. Chemical Equilibrium -- 15. Acid–Base Equilibria -- 16. Solubility and Precipitation Equilibria -- 17. Electrochemistry -- UNIT 5: RATES OF CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROCESSES -- 18. Chemical Kinetics -- 19. Nuclear Chemistry -- 20. Molecular Spectroscopy and Photochemistry -- UNIT 6: MATERIALS -- 21. Structure and Bonding in Solids -- 22. Inorganic Materials -- 23. Polymeric Materials and Soft Condensed Matter.
Summary: Long considered the standard for honors and high-level mainstream general chemistry courses, PRINCIPLES OF MODERN CHEMISTRY, 7e, International Edition continues to set the standard as the most modern, rigorous, and chemically and mathematically accurate text on the market. Thoroughly revised throughout to strengthen its sound "atoms first" approach, this authoritative text now features new and updated content, and more mathematically accurate and artistic atomic and molecular orbital art. In addition, the text is now more student friendly without compromising its rigor. End-of-chapter study aids now focus on only the most important key objectives, equations and concepts, making it easier for students to locate chapter content, while new applications to a wide range of disciplines, such as biology, chemical engineering, biochemistry, and medicine deepen students' understanding of the relevance of chemistry beyond the classroom.
