Chemistry (#BCC)

Description

A great reference guide, this starts off with a mini periodic table and columns showing the atomic number, symbol, atomic weight, name, and electron configuration of every known element — and that’s only half of what’s on page 1! Atomic structure, nuclear chemistry, atomic quantum numbers and orbitals, many-electron atoms, types of matter, reactions, physical processes, hints for balancing equations, nomenclature, measurements and units, fundamental constants, chemical interactions, formal bonding models, valence bond theory, molecular properties, behavior of gases, mixtures and solutions, oxidation reduction reactions, acid/base reactions, thermodynamics, kinetics, and more! Illustrated, with descriptions and examples. Don’t tackle high-school chemistry without it!
