Brown, Chemistry: The Central Science book cover

Chemistry: The Central Science

High School bound Student Edition with a special AP* Preface—includes an AP* Exam correlation guide, an annotated syllabus with suggested topics, and tips for AP* Exam success.
New content, including more in-depth treatment of electronic structure and bonding, spread across several chapters.
Updated End-of-Chapter review material.
Four-step problem-solving approach helps students to understand what they are being asked to solve, to plan how they will solve each problem, to work their way through the solution, and to check their answers.
Dual-column problem-solving strategies in Selected Sample Exercises explain the thought process involved in each step of a mathematical calculation using a unique layout for clarity.
Every new Student Edition is packaged with a Virtual ChemLab CD.
Special AP* supplements also available include: AP* Test Prep Workbook (written by Ed Waterman and correlated directly to the Eleventh Edition) and an AP* ExamView Test Generator.
Robust companion Web site (provided free upon adoption) includes the complete eBook, problems sets, movies, animations, the Virtual ChemLab workbook, gradebook functionality, and much more.
Single-student, 12-month MasteringChemistry access (with or without Pearson eText) access is available for purchase for the 11th Edition. For more information about this dynamic online homework, tutorial, and assessment tool, visit www.MasteringChemistry.com.
100% digital solution available!

Suchocki, Conceptual Chemistry book cover

For an alternative approach to honors chemistry

This engaging text presents chemistry conceptually, building a base from which the students may view the world around them more perceptively by helping them visualize the behavior of atoms and molecules to understand our macroscopic environment.
A conversational and clear writing style engages student interest.
In-text Concept Checks pose a question followed by an immediate answer. These questions reinforce ideas just presented, before a student moves on to new concepts, and help students synthesize ideas from across the chapter.
Calculation Corners appear in selected chapters. They are included so that students can practice the quantitative-reasoning skills needed to perform chemical calculations. (None of the calculations involves skills beyond fractions, percentages, or basic algebra.)
Short FYI paragraphs in the margins are included in each chapter. These paragraphs highlight interesting information relating to the adjacent chapter content.
Robust companion Web site (provided free upon adoption) tutorials, animations, quizzes, gradebook functionality, and much more.

Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach book cover

This innovative, pedagogically driven text explains difficult concepts in a student-oriented manner.
Students' problem-solving skills are developed through a consistent step-by-step framework that encourages students to think logically through the problem-solving process rather than simply memorizing formulas.
Offers a rigorous and accessible treatment of chemistry in the context of relevance.
Chemistry is presented visually through multi-level images—macroscopic, molecular and symbolic representations—helping students see the connections among the formulas (symbolic), the world around them (macroscopic), and the atoms and molecules that make up the world (molecular).
Second Edition offers a crisp new design, adds more challenging problems, and significantly revises coverage of electrochemistry.
Single-student, 12-month MasteringChemistry access (with or without Pearson eText) access is available for purchase. For more information about this dynamic online homework, tutorial, and assessment tool, visit www.MasteringChemistry.com.
