Description

What do the numbers on the periodic table mean? What were the halogens again? If these questions sound familiar, you are probably a beginner chemistry student. And like many new chemistry students, you may sometimes get tangled up in the details. This book clearly explains many of the concepts that confuse new chemistry students including how to read and understand the periodic table, physical versus chemical changes, the states of matter, and the differences between atoms, molecules, mixtures, and compounds. The different ways that atoms combine to form molecules are reviewed, and the naming of simple molecules is taught in depth. Diagrams and problems are included to test your understanding of these concepts. This book should be most useful to the beginning student of chemistry at any grade level, though most ideally high school level or the very beginnings of college.
