This course is designed to be the second high school chemistry course that a student takes. In order to take this course, then, the student must have already had one year of high school chemistry. When added to that ?rst-year course, this course "?lls in the gaps," giving the student the equivalent of the first year of college chemistry. You might have heard this kind of course called an "advanced placement" or "AP" course. In addition to a ?rst year of chemistry, the student needs to have completed Algebra 2. The course covers detailed descriptions of limiting-reagent stoichiometry, atomic and molecular orbitals, intermolecular forces, solutions, equilibria, acids and bases, redox reactions, nuclear chemistry, and organic chemistry. Challenging but understandable, your student will be at the top of his or her university chemistry class after taking this course. Format: 2 volume set The first book, hardbound, is the student text, which contains all student material, 'on your own' questions and solutions, laboratory exercises, and review questions and practice problems. B and W illustrations and diagrams. The second book, softbound, is the solutions and tests manual, which contains answers to the review questions and practice problems, tests, and test solutions. B and W.
