AN Excellent Chem Book

This is my sixth year teaching using this book. I love it. I have been teaching High School Chemistry for 11 years and have used 8 different books (including teaching AP Chem and teaching at the Community College.) The good things about the book: 1. For High School Chemistry it is one of the most commonly used. 2. All the topics that need to be covered are covered well. 3. I like the sequencing. o Some texts try to sequence from a historical perspective (gas laws very early) - which is very confusing for students. o Other texts may have nuclear chemistry early - which leaves a small percent of the students always thinking that the nucleus changes in chemical reactions. 4. There are many problems for student practice. 5. The website has excellent resources for both students and teachers. o For students there are work sheets, on-line quizzes and solved problems. o For the teacher: I have my student print out the worksheets and do them at home - saves me copying. They can do the same for some pdf files - there is at least one for every new type of calculation (mole conversions, yield problems, limiting reagent problems ...) The worksheets have a "teacher edition" -solved for your assistance. 6. The test making software is easy to use, easy to edit and easy to make multiple tests. Things that could be improved upon: 1. It's big. My students must read through over 900 pages in one academic year. We don't cover it all. 2. I get quite a few "What does that mean?" questions. The text could be written clearer. 3. Most of the questions are math problems. The few conceptual problems are really not deep enough. 4. It is a good middle ground between college chemistry and lower level chemistry. 5. It could use a well integrated lab manual - designed for a 50 minute class.

GREAT

I thought that this was a great book. I used it for honors chemistry in high school and used the book more than the teacher did because I thought that the book gave some really good examples and lessons, which were completely worked through. This is a great book for people just starting to take chemistry. But beware, a few little topics are passed up, like calculating physical changes.

excelent

I received the book in a very good condition and very fast, thanks for an excelent service.

GREAT FOR CHEMISTRY STARTERS

Those of you who cannot understand chemistry either because the teacher does not know how to teach or you really do not want to listen...THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU. The book is a nice manual for those who cannot comprehend chemistry. It will be like your virtual teacher in print. My only complain about this book is that it is too long. But at least it is comprehensive. And what I like most in this book is it is divided into many sections which made it easier to digest.
