For two-semester courses in General Chemistry.
General Chemistry provides integrated coverage of organic and biochemistry, integrated applications, integrated tools that foster operational problem-solving skills and conceptual understanding, and an integrated media learning program. More than any other, this text offers balance—in the topics presented, and in its presentation of the subject of chemistry. The Third Edition retains the relaxed, easy-to-read style of the previous edition to make chemistry more understandable to the average student.
Emphasizes the molecular view of thermodynamics.
Shows students how the concepts under discussion relate to their own interests.
Provides students with a more up-to-date and interesting look at chemistry's applications.
Highlights this important and interesting area of chemistry.
Emphasizes these important areas of chemistry gradually and lets students begin their study of chemistry reading about compounds they recognize, such as aspirin, sucrose, and antifreeze.
Shows students chemical behavior both at the observable and the microscopic levels.
Guides students toward the more complicated exercises they may find in the end-of-chapter exercises or on exams.
Helps students better understand quantitative problem-solving approaches, ideal for visual learners.
Gives detailed, step-by-step commentary for each step in a series of calculations so that students can understand what is happening at each point in the problem-solving process.
Helps students cement true understanding of the material.
Encourages student analysis of numerical answers. Do they make sense?
Offers students frequent opportunities to reinforce, challenge, and apply their understanding of newly acquired concepts.
Gives instructors a broader range of problems to assign. These tougher problems require students to put several concepts together.
Integrates the media with the text, making its use seamless and without much start-up time.
Provides interactive media and assessment questions with feedback designed to increase student interest, retention, and understanding with minimal required start-up time.
Gives instructors a wide range of ways for them to customize their course and class presentations.
Emphasizes the molecular view of thermodynamics.
Provides students with a more up-to-date and interesting look at chemistry's applications.
Highlights this important and interesting area of chemistry.
Shows students chemical behavior both at the observable and the microscopic levels.
Offers students frequent opportunities to reinforce, challenge, and apply their understanding of newly acquired concepts.
Gives instructors a broader range of problems to assign. These tougher problems require students to put several concepts together.
Chapters end with a Summary, Key Terms, Review Questions, Problems and Additional Problems.
1. Chemistry: Matter and Measurement.

John W. Hill received his B.S. in Chemistry and Mathematics from Middle Tennessee State University in 1957 and a Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Arkansas in 1961. Following three years at Northeast Louisiana State College, he joined the faculty of the University of Wisconsin-River Falls in 1963. He served 13 years as Chair of the Department of Chemistry. In 1985 Pe was chosen Outstanding Faculty Member, Sciences and Mathematics. In 1989 he received the Robert C. Brasted Award for Outstanding College Teaching. A long-time member of the College Chemistry Consultants Service, he has served as a consultant at more than 40 colleges and universities. He is the author of several books, including Chemistry for Changing Times (with Doris K. Kolb) and Chemistry and Life: An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry (with Stuart Baum and Rhonda Scott-Ennis). He has also written a children's mystery book, The Crimecracker Kids and the Bake Shop Break-in (with Marilyn D. Duerst).
Ralph Petrucci received his B.S. in Chemistry from Union College and his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Following several years of teaching, research, consulting, and directing NSF Institutes for Secondary School Science Teachers at Case Western Reserve University, Professor Petrucci joined the planning staff of the new California State University campus at San Bernardino in 1964. There, in addition to his faculty appointment, he has served as Chairman of the Natural Sciences Division and Dean of Academic Planning. Professor Petrucci, now retired from teaching, is the author of several books, including General Chemistry: Principles and Modern Applications, 8th edition, with William S. Harwood and F. Geoffrey Herring.
