Chemistry: Concepts and Problems: A Self-Teaching Guide (Wiley Self-Teaching Guides)

Very good for class 11th standard.

Very old. Didn't realize that the book was printed in 1996. The periodic table has elements only till 109 and 2 unknowns. Wish they had updated.

Xii standard...only phy portion cvred

It’s great overall but it does not have anything on thermochemistry ( phase changes is a good chapter though) quantum mechanics is only electron filling but no wavelengths. The limiting reactant part is not great either, my text (tro et al.) was much better. It is great for fill in and review but it doesn’t have everything. The solutions Chem and acids and bases were great. Overall I say it’s worth buying g for extra exercises and help with certain concepts but it won’t follow a first year university text exactly. (Ps, there is electronegativity and bonds but no VESPR geometry)

Kindle版を購入いたしました。本をスキャンしているためか、傾いているページも多いです。また、一部ページでは答えも書き込まれており、問題集であるにもかかわらずこの状態はがっかりです。 内容としてはまずまずです。独学できるように作成されていますが、日本の高校生のカリキュラムとは異なる点も多いことに注意が必要です。

When the clep administrator at my institution informed me that no one he had ever given the chemistry clep to had passed, I decided to take the preparation very seriously. I began researching how other people had passed the test and ordered several materials. After 8+ years of no chemistry, my chemistry knowledge was not very good, so I had to prepare more than someone who just finished a high school chem or college intro chem course. If you are starting from scratch or just want to make sure you pass this test, then this is what I would recommend. Begin with the Wiley, "Chemistry Concepts and Problems: A Self Teaching Guide." This book is written in a continuous question and answer format that reviews and tests your knowledge to build a strong foundation of chemistry knowledge and problem solving. Then simultaneously study REA's "CLEP Chimistry," by Peel (I strongly recommend getting the book and CD with two practice tests included) with the Chemistry CLEP Professor software. You will find the REA book to be very summarized. I bought that first and felt like I needed more help. I found the CLEP Professor and gave it a try. My comprehension and retention immediately began skyrocketing, in addition to my practice test scores! The CLEP Professor follows the exact format and order of information of the book, but fills in a lot of the gaps. You may opt to purchase a general chemistry textbook to look up additional information on specific questions, but I would not recommend studying it alone to pass. There is too much information not focused for the CLEP exam that will make you forget what you need to know. You can also research anything you need to know more about online making the textbook unnecessary. I would recommend at least one month to go through these three materials. You should plan to spend about two weeks on the Wiley Self Study and two weeks on the CLEP professor and REA book together. That will give you 6 practice tests to work on. I recommend taking one practice test while you are studying the last two materials every other day. This will show you what you are learning and what you need to learn. Spend one month and about a total of $150 and you can save two semesters of time and about $2000. You should pass easily if you follow the three steps of this program: 1-Wiley Self-Teaching Guide, 2-CLEP Professor and REA CLEP Chemistry, 3-Take practice tests and look up material you are unfamiliar with. I hope you do well.

helps you learn a lot about chemistry

I love this book. I have never studied chemistry before, this book so far has helped to understand a lot. there are tests to test yourself along the way to make sure you have understood what you have read. very well written, easy to understand. I would recommend it to anyone.
