Sommario/riassunto

Filled with real-life demonstrations that support instructive written examples, this program reinforces the basic principles of solving equations for chemical reactions. A brief historical overview describes Marie and Antoine Lavoisier's establishment of the law of conservation of mass, as well as the theoretical contributions of John Dalton. The importance of balancing equations is emphasized, along with a thorough exploration of reaction types. Step-by-step guides to combination, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement, and combustion reactions will give beginning- and intermediate-level students a working knowledge of formulation processes.
