Introductory Chemistry, Third Edition is designed for a one-semester, introductory or preparatory chemistry course. Students taking this course need to develop problem-solving skills-but they also must see why these skills are important to them and to their world. Introductory Chemistry extends chemistry from the laboratory to the student's world. It motivates students to learn chemistry by demonstrating how it plays out in their daily lives. The third edition continues to employ Tro's proven pedagogical features: the Solution Map provides a visual approach showing students how to think through a problem and formulate a solution strategy; the unique Three-Column Problem-Solving Procedures describe a problem-solving procedure while demonstrating how it is applied to two different examples. In addition, the Conceptual Checkpoint features now include questions that prompt students to visualize the molecular world around them. Introductory Chemistry, Third Edition can be packaged with MasteringChemistry (TM), the most advanced chemistry homework and tutorial system available. This online homework and tutoring system utilizes the Socratic Method to coach students through problem-solving techniques, offering hints and simpler questions on request. It tutors students individually with feedback specific to their errors. MasteringChemistry (TM) helps students learn, not just practice.

Seller's Description:
The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly. All pages and cover are intact (including the dust cover, if applicable). Spine may show signs of wear. Pages may include limited notes and highlighting. May NOT include discs, access code or other supplemental materials.
This book was actually very good. It taught me more about chemistry than my professor. Everything was so easy to follow, and the examples/instructions were very clear. The few problems at the end of each section were helpful, but the best part were the 100 or so review questions at the end of each chapter. If you read the chapters and do the questions, there is no way you will be confused. I actually am sad to sell this book now that I no longer need it.
