Student Workbook and Selected Solutions Manual for Introductory Chemistry: Atoms First [Paperback]

An atoms-first approach to chemistry

• NEW! Reviewer feedback regarding coverage of advanced topics has been incorporated into the only atoms first introductory text available, and informs many of the enhancements to features in MasteringChemistry^?.
• Students start learning from the building blocks of matter and progress to understanding complex chemistry concepts from a logical point of view and with a deep understanding.
• Topics are organized in a way that tells a cohesive story of chemistry from the microscopic to the macroscopic as well as reflects the authors' approach in their own classrooms.
• Abundant atomic and molecular depictions embedded into the narrative help students visualize concepts.

Core concepts for solving quantitative and qualitative problems

• NEW! Learning Outcomes: Each end-of-chapter review section now begins with a table of learning outcomes for each section of the chapter, correlated to the end-of-chapter problems. The learning outcomes consist of goals and skills the student should learn and practice before moving on to the next chapter.
• NEW! All-new Concept Questions allow students to reflect on the learning goals of the chapter.
• NEW! All-new One More Thing feature provides opportunities to take the concepts of the chapter further, such as discussion of buffers, nonstoichiometric compounds, isotopes and mass spectrometers. This section is designed to clearly give the instructor an option to skip it without damaging the flow of the material that follows and remain guilt-free when time requirements are tightl$
