Chemistry: An Atoms-Focused Approach

Chemistry: An Atoms-Focused Approach

<p><strong>Not just Atoms First, Atoms Focused. An atoms first text and media program that goes beyond a reorganization of topics, emphasizes the particulate nature of matter throughout the book, art, and problems, and helps students develop their molecular visualization skills as they learn to become expert problem solvers.</strong></p> The Second Edition's new co author, Stacey Lowery Bretz, uses visualization tools―based on Chemistry Education Research, and focused on the particulate nature of matter―to help students self assess what they know before, during, and after each chapter. Smartwork5 allows instructors to use this pedagogy as a diagnostic, and students receive hints and answer specific feedback within the text. New ChemTour Animations support visualization at a molecular level, and are integrated throughout the media package.
