This title is out of print. Karen C. Timberlake, Los Angeles Valley College. Availability This title is out of print. Assuming no prior knowledge of chemistry, it aims to make this course an engaging and positive experience by relating the structure and behavior of matter to its role in health and the environment. Timberlake maintains the clear, friendly writing style and the real-world, health-related applications that have made this text a leader in the discipline.
The Eleventh Edition introduces more problem-solving strategies—including new Concept Checks, more Guides to Problem Solving, and more conceptual, challenge, and combined problems. Chapter openers and features contain photos and interviews with scientists and health care professionals who discuss the importance of chemistry in their careers. Health, Environmental, History, and Industry Notes throughout the text relate chemistry chapters to real-life topics in health, the environment, and medicine that are interesting and motivating to students.
Timberlake's accessible writing style is based on a carefully paced and simple development of chemical concepts. Chemical terms are given precise definitions and clear goals are set for each section of the text.
Guide to Problem Solving provides students with step-by-step strategies they need to master important quantitative problem types. Questions and Problems follow every section and allow students to apply problem-solving to each concept just discussed. Sample Problems with Study Checks help students read, recognize, set up, and solve numerous problem types, while developing critical thinking skills and building confidence before moving on to other topics. Concept Maps, found at the end of each chapter, give students a big picture overview of concepts and how they connect to each other.
Macro-to-Micro art illustrations visually connect the real-life world with atomic-level representations. Explore Your World hands-on activities in each chapter make chemistry exciting, relevant, and non-threatening to students. New to This Edition. A new Chapter 1 Chemistry and Measurements has been created by combining the Prologue and Chapter 1 from the previous edition. The prologue content was moved into chapter 1 to make it more visible.
Concept Checks with answers now appear in every chapter to help students focus on their understanding of newly introduced chemical terms and ideas.
A discussion of the metallic character of elements appears in Chapter 3. A new Explore Your World activity encourages students to use gumdrops and toothpicks to model cis-trans isomers. A new table In Chapter 7 Solutions organizes data for concentrated and diluted solution conditions including what is known and what is needed to help students determine unknown before rearranging the dilution expression. Captions have been added to photos to clarify content. Chapter Reviews now include art samples related to content of each section.
