This title is a Pearson Global Edition. The Editorial team at Pearson has worked closely with educators around the world to include content which is especially relevant to students outside the United States.   About the Book   Show the relevance of chemistry through real-world examples   ·    NEW! Clinical Updates continue the story and link Clinical Application Questions to the information in the Chapter Opener using new chapter content. ·    NEW! Clinical Applications identify clinically ­related study problems in each section of Questions and Problems. ·    NEW! Connect feature added to Analyze the Problem boxes indicates the relationships between Given and Need. ·    NEW! New topics in biochemistry have been introduced in the following areas: o Amino Acids and Enzymes   o Nucleic Acids and Protein Synthesis o Metabolic Pathways and Energy Production o Metabolism and Energy Production ·    Chapter-opening profiles show students how professionals working in diverse careers—such as nursing, physical therapy, dentistry, agriculture, and food science—use chemistry every day. These engaging articles draw students into each chapter, while helping them understand the applications of chemistry to a variety of future professions. ·    Explore Your World hands-on activities encourage students to explore selected chemistry topics using everyday materials, making chemistry exciting, relevant, and non-threatening. ·    Chemistry Links to Health and Environment throughout the text relate chemistry concepts to real-life topics in health, the environment, and medicine that interest students. ·    Integrated math remediation includes new Key Math Skills that review relevant basic math operations. A Key Math Skill Review at the end of each chapter summarizes what was presented in the chapter and provides additional examples. ·    Core Chemistry Skills identify the key chemical principles in each chapter that are required to successfully learn chemistry. A new Core Chemistry Skill Review at the end of each chapter reinforces the material and helps students study.   Foster development of problem-solving skills   ·    NEW! Try It First features have been added to each Sample Problem, between the Question and the Solution. They remind students that the effort of attempting to solve a problem before looking at a solution helps to connect to new learning ideas, practice retrieval of information, identify gaps in understanding, identify how ideas are related, and shows them how to change their approach to the problem in the future. ·    REVISED! End-of-Chapter questions and problems have been reorganized in random order, rather than in the chapter sequence already available in each Section, to mix concepts and problem types, requiring students to identify (retrieve) knowledge sets as needed. This new reorganization will promote learning patterns required for Combining Ideas, which are mixed questions and problems from two or more chapters. ·    Analyze the Problem features are included in the solutions to the Sample Problems to strengthen critical-thinking skills and to help students break down word problems into the components required to solve them. ·    Numerous Sample Problems in each chapter demonstrate the application of each new concept to problem solving. The worked-out solutions give step-by-step explanations, provide a problem-solving mo

About the Book   ·    Clinical Updates continue the story and link Clinical Application Questions to the information in the Chapter Opener using new chapter content. ·    Clinical Applications identify clinically ­related study problems in each section of Questions and Problems. ·    Engage questions are self­-quizzes in the margin next to new textual material that help the student associate new content with knowledge available in long-term memory. Students succeed when continually quizzed on new material, which practices the retrieval of new information. ·    Try It First features have been added to each Sample Problem, between the Question and the Solution. They remind students that the effort of attempting to solve a problem before looking at a solution helps to connect to new learning ideas, practice retrieval of information, identify gaps in understanding, identify how ideas are related, and shows them how to change their approach to the problem in the future. ·    Connect feature added to Analyze the Problem boxes indicates the relationships between Given and Need. ·    Mini Concept Links (Concept Networks) diagrams at the end of each section show the connections between the concepts in that section and previous sections, and precede the complete Concept Map at the end of the Chapter, to build related knowledge sets for each section. ·    Study Tips in each question section will include a suggestion that the student read and test from memory and check results, then repeat the reading a few days later and retest again. This is a way to include the idea from Make It Stick that when students repeat testing and connecting material, the recall on an exam is much improved. ·    End-of-Chapter questions and problems have been reorganized in random order, rather than in the chapter sequence already available in each Section, to mix concepts and problem types, requiring students to identify (retrieve) knowledge sets as needed.

Instructors ensure students arrive ready to learn by assigning educationally effective content and encourage critical thinking and retention with in-class resources such as Learning Catalytics™. Students can further master concepts through homework assignments that provide hints and answer-specific feedback. The Mastering gradebook records scores for all automatically graded assignments in one place, while diagnostic tools give instructors access to rich data to assess student understanding and misconceptions.   ·    The Chemistry Primer helps students remediate their chemistry math skills and prepare for their first college chemistry course. o Pre-built Assignments get students up to speed at the beginning of the course. o Math is covered in the context of chemistry, basic chemical literacy, balancing chemical equations, mole theory, and stoichiometry. o Scaled to students’ needs, remediation is only suggested to students that pe
