General Chemistry 10th Edition by Ebbing and Gammon

,

General Chemistry 10th Edition by Darrell Ebbing and Steven D. Gammon helps students master quantitative skills and build a lasting conceptual understanding of key chemical concepts. The tenth edition retains this hallmark approach and builds upon the conceptual focus through key new features and revisions.

This book is heavily revised art and photography program that helps highlight the excitement of chemistry while explaining key concepts. New talking labels have been added to the art and photos. These talk students through the figure and explain what they are seeing--what they need to know. The new pedagogical feature has been added to all of the examples that are woven throughout the book.

The new feature in the examples is called the "Gaining Mastery Toolbox." Every tool box contains "Critical Concepts" and "Solution Essentials." Critical Concepts are concepts from the relevant chapter that the student needs to know in order to work through the example. The Solution Essential segment features a list of information needed to solve the problem presented--for example, a student may need the periodic table, Avogadro's number, etc.

TWO TIER questions are ones that ask a student a question and then they must choose the answer. The second tier question is where they choose why they chose that answer. Students often choose the correct answer but not the correct reason they answered it correctly, which reveals that they do not under the concept being demonstrated.

New end of chapter "Check List for Review" feature--this new feature is presented in an easy-to-follow tabular format that includes a summary of facts and concepts, learning objectives, Important terms, and Key Equations. This innovative presentation is organized by section. End-of-chapter problem types strengthen student's conceptual understanding: multiple-choice Self-Assessment and Review Questions, multi-step Concept Explorations, and rigorous Strategy Problems.
