Chemistry

For courses in two-semester general chemistry

Designed for general chemistry courses that consider a lot of organic examples, or for students who plan to continue in organic chemistry. The Prentice Hall Molecular Model Set can be used to construct realistic 'scale models' illustrating the molecular structures of many thousands of compounds. With it one can build molecular models of representative compounds from virtually all classes of organic and inorganic compounds, including hydrocarbons, alcohols, carbonyls, thiols, sulfonic acids, phosphates, boranes, Grignard reagents, and many more.

Unrivaled problem sets, notable scientific accuracy and currency, and remarkable clarity have made Chemistry: The Central Science the leading general chemistry text for more than a decade. Trusted, innovative, and calibrated, the text increases conceptual understanding and leads to greater student success in general chemistry by building on the expertise of the dynamic author team of leading researchers and award-winning teachers.
