Julia Burdge's Chemistry: Atoms First provides a consistentand logical method for teaching general chemistry. Theatoms first approach starts with the fundamental buildingblock of matter, the atom, and uses it as the stepping-stone tounderstanding more complex chemistry topics. Once masteryof the nature of atoms and electrons is achieved, theformation and properties of compounds are developed. Onlyafter the study of matter and the atom will students havesufficient background to fully engage in topics such asstoichiometry, kinetics, equilibrium, and thermodynamics.Revisions throughout the text to align the data to the ALEKSdata values strengthen its integration with ALEKS.ALEKS features Personalized Learning, Custom QuestionAuthoring, Video Assignments, Virtual Labs, and more!

Introductory Chemistry: An Atoms First Approach by Julia Burdge and Michelle Driessen has been developed and written using an atoms first approach specific to introductory chemistry. It is a carefully crafted text, designed and written with the introductory chemistry student in mind.The arrangement of topics facilitates the conceptual development of chemistry for the novice, rather than the historical development that has been used traditionally. Its language and style are student friendly and conversational, and the importance and wonder of chemistry in everyday life are emphasized at every opportunity.The text is strengthened by its offering in ALEKS, now featuring Custom Question Authoring, Video Assignments, Virtual Labs, and more!
