About this book

Chemistry, 4th Edition is an introductory general chemistry text designed specifically with Canadian professors and students in mind. A reorganized Table of Contents and inclusion of SI units, IUPAC standards, and Canadian content designed to engage and motivate readers and distinguish this text from other offerings. It more accurately reflects the curriculum of most Canadian institutions. Chemistry is sufficiently rigorous while engaging and retaining student interest through its accessible language and clear problem-solving program without an excess of material and redundancy.
