About our authorNivaldo Tro has been teaching college chemistry since 1990 and is currently teaching at the College of Creatives at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and at Santa Barbara City College. He received his Ph.D. in chemistry from Stanford University for work on developing and using optical techniques to study the adsorption and desorption of molecules to and from surfaces in ultrahigh vacuum. He then went on to the University of California at Berkeley, where he did postdoctoral research on ultrafast reaction dynamics in solution. Professor Tro has been awarded grants from the American Chemical Society Petroleum Research Fund, the Research Corporation, and the National Science Foundation to study the dynamics of various processes occurring in thin adlayer films adsorbed on dielectric surfaces. Professor Tro lives in Santa Barbara with his wife, Ann. In his leisure time, Professor Tro enjoys cycling, surfing, and being outdoors.
Chemistry: A Molecular Approach presents chemistry visually through macroscopic, molecular, and symbolic multi-level images to help you see the connections between chemistry and the world around you. Author Nivaldo Tro uses a consistent problem-solving approach (Sort, Strategize, Solve, and Check) throughout the text to show how to analyze a problem and devise a solution strategy. His consistent problem-solving approach and active learning resources are designed to engage you in becoming an expert problem solver and critical thinker.
The 6th Edition presents interactive digital features to guide you through key concepts and the problem-solving process. Updates reflect current research on the COVID-19 vaccine and an extensive diversity, equity and inclusion review.
