Description: "Chemistry in Quantitative Language provides students with a concise summary of important concepts in chemistry and a detailed guide to understanding every type of calculation likely to arise in a general chemistry course. Problem-solving is one of the most challenging aspects of general chemistry courses. This book's primary goal is to prevent frustration by providing students with innovative, intuitive, and systematic strategies to master problem-solving in chemistry. To achieve this goal, the text offers several sample problems with carefully explained, step-by-step solutions for each concept. Key concepts, basic theories, and equations are provided, and worked examples are selected to reflect possible ways problems could be presented to students."--Jacket.
