- • NEW! Chapter Readiness paragraphs at the beginning of each section provide a summary of the Key Math and Core Chemistry skills from the previous chapters, helping students prepare for the current chapter.
- • Chapter 1 now discusses the Scientific Method in everyday terms, guides students in developing a study plan for learning chemistry, and includes a new section of Key Math Skills that review the basic math, including scientific notation needed in chemistry calculations.
- • Learning Goals at the beginning of each section identify the key concepts for that section and provide a roadmap for students’ study. Chapter Reviews at the end of each chapter include Learning Goals and new visual thumbnails summarize the key points in each section. Learning Goals are included throughout the textbook to reinforce student retention and awareness of central concepts. These are available with Understanding the Concepts, Additional Questions and Problems, and Challenge Problems at the end of each chapter, and can be used by professors to assign homework in print and online via MasteringChemistry.
- • Chapter-opening Clinical Career focus provide engaging stories relating how Chemistry is used daily in contemporary health-related professions. The chapter openers are now more clinically oriented with each story revisited with a Clinical Update at the end of chapter.
- • Clinical Update feature appears in the end-of-chapter material for each chapter and revisits the story from the Chapter-opening Career feature in the context of the chemistry learned in the chapter and provides additional application problems.
- • Help students develop problem-solving skills
