Essentials of General Chemistry is an ideal choice for instructors who want a shorter, less expensive core text that still supports a typical general chemistry course. Since the text covers the same topical scope as Ebbing/Gammon General Chemistry, it also presents an attractive option for the growing number of one-semester general chemistry courses. The book is priced 25% below most full-sized general chemistry texts.
The Essentials text retains all of the hallmark qualities of its parent text, including its ability to teach quantitative problem solving, its focus on conceptual understanding and visualization, and its state-of-the-art technology package. Its art program focuses on molecular-level depictions of macro-level phenomena.
<ul>
<li>The text features a consistent and proven approach to problem-solving. Each problem-solving skill is introduced in a worked-out "Example." Most of these examples include a "Problem Strategy." Each Example is followed by a list of corresponding end-of-chapter "Practice Problems, " which reinforce skills and concepts.</li>
<li>"A Chemist Looks At" boxes connect chemistry to the real world by highlighting its applications to medicine/health, frontiers of science, the environment, and everyday life.</li>
<li>Chapter 13, "Solid Materials of Modern Technology," includes information of particular value to engineering students.</li>

Essentials of General Chemistry

Ragsdale, Ronald O.

Known for its carefully developed, thoroughly integrated approach to problem solving, this market-leading text emphasizes the conceptual understanding and visualization skills essential for first-year chemistry and science majors. The new technology program reinforces the approach of the text and provides a complete solution for teaching and learning.The Eighth Edition retains the hallmark pedagogical features of the text and builds upon the conceptual focus and art program. Students also benefit from online homework in the technology program, which features an extensive database of questions drawn from the text.

Thoroughly updated and carefully accuracy-checked for the Ninth Edition, the Student Solutions Manual provides worked out solutions to all in-chapter exercises, as well as detailed, step-by-step solutions to odd-numbered practice problems, general problems, and cumulative-skills problems, plus answers to all self-assessment and review questions. Because the Concept Explorations and Strategy Problems are intended to challenge students to think step by step and not rush for a numerical answer (or a matched pair to model an algorithmic answer upon), the solutions for these are not provided in the text or Student Solutions Manual. The Student Solutions Manual has been thoroughly accuracy checked for the ninth edition.

The perfect complement to the main text, the Study Guide further emphasizes the step-by-step problem solving approach with an emphasis on the thinking processes required. Each chapter contains a list of key terms and their definitions, learning objectives, additional worked-out exercises tied to the in-chapter examples, a diagnostic test, summaries of major concepts, additional practice problems, and a post-test. Eight additional cumulative unit exams are provided. Helpful tips on how to use the textbook, study effectively, and succeed in general chemistry make this a valuable resource for students.

Experiments in General Chemistry Lab Manual contains 41 traditional experiments sequenced to follow the text. At least one experiment is provided for each chapter of the text. Each experiment is carefully organized with introductory remarks, a discussion of the experiment's purpose, a pre-laboratory assignment, step-by-step procedures, and a convenient section for results and questions. New to this edition are ten Inquiries with Limited Guidance. Following the conceptual focus of the text, these new experiments allow students to work at their own intellectual levels, design their own experiments, and analyze the data from those experiments without help or prompting from the manual. These are not tied directly to any chapter of the text, and can be integrated at the instructor's discretion throughout the course.
