Publisher's Description of General Chemistry Solutions Manual (Novare)
Full solutions to all calculation problems in General Chemistry.
This is a useful supplement to students, homeschooling environments, or anyone who would like help with the working out the problem sets in General Chemistry. In this book, the author “shows his work” and how each problem or calculation is solved.
Intended for
use at the 11th grade level, Novare General Chemistry takes a bit of
a different approach from other chemistry courses. Focusing on fewer topics
with more depth, Novare Science takes a Kingdom Perspective to current
scientific theories. Prior to the course, students should have successfully
completed Algebra 1, Introductory Physics and Biology. Algebra 2 should be
taken concurrently. By following the author's suggestion of physics first, the
student can more easily work through General Chemistry and have a greater
understanding of the concepts. Through General Chemistry, students are brought
into the real world of chemistry through detailed and clearly explained text,
laboratory experiments, and carefully constructed exercises and quizzes. The
history of modern chemistry, mathematics and technical communication is
emphasized throughout.
