Chemistry - the study of change; atoms, molecules, and ions; mass relationship in chemical reactions; reactions in an aqueous solution; gases; thermochemistry; quantum theory and the electronic structure of atoms; periodic relationships among the elements; chemical bonding I - basic concepts; chemical bonding II - molecular geometry and hybridization of atomic orbitals; intermolecular forces and liquids and solids; physical properties of solutions; chemical kinetics; chemical equilibrium; acids and bases; acid-base equilibria and solubility equilibria; chemistry in the atmosphere; entropy, free energy, and equilibrium; electrochemistry; metallurgy and the chemistry of metals; non-metallic elements and their components; transition metals and co-ordination compounds; nuclear chemistry; organic chemistry; synthetic and natural organic polymers.

This text has a traditional approach to teaching the basic concepts and principles of chemistry. It aims to cover a broad range of topics in a clear and concise manner, with extra explanation of more complex topics; in particular, heat and enthalpy are given special attention. There is also additional material on descriptive chemistry, and the applications of chemistry to other sciences and to everyday life.
