N2  - 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
