| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | Now in its fifth edition, Introductory Chemistry Essentials continues to foster deep engagement in the course by showing how chemistry manifests in students’ daily lives. Author Nivaldo Tro draws upon his classroom experience as an award-winning instructor to extend chemistry from the laboratory to the student’s world, capturing student attention with relevant applications and a captivating writing style.<br/><br/><br/>This program provides a better teaching and learning experience–for you and your students. It will help you to: <br/><br/>.<br/>• Enable deep conceptual understanding: Several new Conceptual Checkpoints and Self- Assessment Quizzes help students better grasp key concepts.<br/>• Foster development of problem-solving skills: A step-by-step framework encourages students to think logically rather than simply memorize formulas. Additional worked examples, enhanced with audio and video, reinforce challenging problems. <br/>• Encourage interest in chemistry: The inclusion of concrete examples of key ideas throughout the program keeps students engaged in the material.<br/><br/>Features<br/><br/>Conceptual Checkpoints reinforce conceptual understanding of the most complex material. Strategically placed throughout each chapter, they prompt students to think about concepts and solve problems without doing any math. Answers and explanations appear at the end of each chapter.<br/><br/>NEW! The fifth edition includes more than 20 new Conceptual Checkpoints, focused on visualizations and drawing as requested by reviewers. These additions reinforce the program’s focus on helping students understand all relevant concepts.<br/><br/>NEW! Key Learning Outcomes that correlate to the Chemical Skills and Examples in the end-of-chapter material and to the content within Mastering Chemistry have been added to each chapter section. Each section (after the introductory sections) includes at least one learning outcome summarizing the key learning objective to help students focus and assess their progress.<br/><br/>NEW! Chapter Self-Assessment Quizzes at the end of each chapter provide opportunities for students to assess what they’ve learned. Each quiz consists of 10–15 multiple-choice questions similar to those found on standard exams.<br/><br/>NEW! 3-4 Questions for Group Work have been added to the end-of-chapter problems in each chapter to facilitate guided-inquiry learning both inside and outside the classroom. <br/><br/>Multi part molecular images depicted through Macroscopic, Microscopic and Symbolic perspectives enable students to better visualize and thus understand, chemistry.<br/>• These multipart images help students to see the relationships among the formulas they write down on paper (symbolic), the world they see around them (macroscopic) and the atoms and molecules that compose that world (molecular).<br/>• Abundant molecular-level views reveal the connections between everyday processes visible to the eye and the activities of atoms and molecules. <br/>• Extensive labels and annotations for each illustration direct students to key elements in the art and help them to understand the processes depicted.<br/><br/>Table of content<br/>Conceptual Checkpoints reinforce conceptual understanding of the most complex material.
