Chemistry

With Dummies at your side, you can conquer O-chem

The 3rd edition of this successful textbook continues to build on the strengths that were recognized by a 2008 Textbook Excellence Award from the Text and Academic Authors Association (TAA). Materials Chemistry addresses inorganic-, organic-, and nano-based materials from a structure vs. property treatment, providing a suitable breadth and depth coverage of the rapidly evolving materials field — in a concise format.
The 3rd edition offers significant updates throughout, with expanded sections on sustainability, energy storage, metal-organic frameworks, solid electrolytes, solvothermal/microwave syntheses, integrated circuits, and nanotoxicity. Most appropriate for Junior/Senior undergraduate students, as well as first-year graduate students in chemistry, physics, or engineering fields, Materials Chemistry may also serve as a valuable reference to industrial researchers. Each chapter concludes with a section that describes important materials applications, and an updated list of thought-provoking questions.

The definitive, science-backed guide to cleaning everything in your home in a safe, sustainable, evidence-based way

Each topic is presented to the student using numerous example problems and a detailed lecture that is designed to supplement any Chemistry course. Chemistry seems challenging to most students because there are a great deal of foreign definitions introduced early in the course.
