Chemistry : the molecular nature of matter and change / [Martin S.] Silberberg, [Patricia G.] Amateis. - [Ninth edition]. - 1 volume (various pagings) : illustrations (chiefly color) ; 28 cm
Includes index.
Keys to studying chemistry : definitions, units, and problem solving -- The components of matter -- Stoichiometry of formulas and equations -- Three major classes of chemical reactions -- Gases and the kinetic-molecular theory -- Thermochemistry : energy flow and chemical change -- Quantum theory and atomic structure -- Electron configuration and chemical periodicity -- Models of chemical bonding -- The shapes of molecules -- Theories of covalent bonding -- Intermolecular forces : liquids, solids, and phase changes -- The properties of mixtures : solutions and colloids -- Periodic patterns in the main-group elements -- Organic compounds and the atomic properties of carbon -- Kinetics : rates and mechanisms of chemical reactions -- Equilibrium : the extent of chemical reactions -- Acid-base equilibria -- Ionic equilibria in aqueous systems -- Thermodynamics : entropy, free energy, and reaction direction -- Electrochemistry : chemical change and electrical work -- The elements in nature and industry -- Transition elements and their coordination compounds -- Nuclear reactions and their applications.
"Chemistry is so crucial to an understanding of medicine and biology, environmental science, and many areas of engineering and industrial processing that it has become a requirement for an increasing number of academic majors. Furthermore, chemical principles lie at the core of some of the key societal issues we face in the 21st century-dealing with climate change, finding new energy options, and supplying nutrition and curing disease on an ever more populated planet. The ninth edition of Chemistry: The Molecular Nature of Matter and Change maintains its standard-setting position among general chemistry textbooks by evolving further to meet the needs of professor and student. The text still contains the most accurate molecular illustrations, consistent step-by-step worked problems, and an extensive collection of end-of-chapter problems. And changes throughout this edition make the text more readable and succinct, the artwork more teachable and modern, and the design more focused and inviting. The three hallmarks that have made this text a market leader are now demonstrated in its pages more clearly than ever"--
