Full Description


For one-semester courses in General Chemistry for civil, mechanical, electrical and engineering students. Emphasizing problem-solving and engineering approximation, this chemistry text provides engineering students with an overview of the chemistry relevant to their lives and professional careers. Throughout the book, Internet key word searching and graphing exercises take advantage of students' existing computer skills and encourage them to acquire new ones in designing, preparing, and interpreting graphs. This textbook also offers a strong focus on the applications of chemistry to engineering in both the text and extensive problem sets.
