1. Atoms and Elements: The Building Blocks of Chemistry.1.1 Chemistry is important for anyone studying the sciences.1.2 The scientific method helps us build models of nature.1.3 Properties of materials can be classified in different ways.1.4 Materials are described by their properties.1.5 Atoms of an element have properties in common.1.6 Atoms are composed of subatomic particles.1.7 The periodic table is used to organize and correlate facts.TOOLS YOU HAVE LEARNED.THINKING IT THROUGH.2. Compounds and Chemical Reactions.2.1 Elements combine to form compounds.2.2 Chemical equations describe what happens in chemical reactions.2.3 Energy is an important part of chemical change.2.4 Molecular compounds contain neutral particles called molecules.2.5 Naming molecular compounds follows a system.2.6 Ionic compounds are composed of charged particles called ions.2.7 The formulas of many ionic compounds can be predicted.2.8 Naming ionic compounds also follows a system.2.9 Molecular and ionic compounds have characteristic properties.TOOLS YOU HAVE LEARNED.THINKING IT THROUGH.3. Measurement.3.1 Measurements are quantitative observations.3.2 Measurements always include units.3.3 Measurements always contain some uncertainty.3.4 Measurements are written using the significant figures convention.3.5 Units can be converted using the factor-label method.3.6 Density is a useful intensive property.TOOLS YOU HAVE LEARNED.THINKING IT THROUGH.4. The Mole: Connecting the Macroscopic and Molecular Worlds.4.1 Use large-scale measurements to count tiny objects.4.2 The mole conveniently links mass to number of atoms or molecules.4.3 Chemical formulas relate amounts of substances in a compound.4.4 Chemical formulas can be determined from experimental mass measurements.4.5 Chemical equations link amounts of substances in a reaction.4.6 Chemical equations cannot create or destroy atoms.4.7 The reactant in shortest supply limits the amount of product.4.8 The predicted amount of product is not always ob
The student-friendly style of the book makes the content accessible without sacrificing either breadth or depth of coverage. The text's informal writing style, emphasis on problem solving, and state-of-the-art media package make this book an ideal fit at schools with large class sizes and a wide range of student abilities and backgrounds. The authors' goal was to create a complete package (text + media + supplements) which would challenge the better-prepared students and provide support to the lesser prepared students, giving ALL students a chance to succeed. 4e welcomes a new co-author Fred Senese, Frostburg State University, the creator of the award-winning General Chemistry Online and Ask Antoine (the most hit general chem web resource in the world with over 15 million hits/year). In addition to creating the new Brady/Senese website, he has also worked with Jim Brady to do significant revisions in the text.
