General Chemistry: Understanding Moles, Bonds, and Equilibria Student Solution Manual, Volume 1 is a companion solution manual to General Chemistry: Understanding Moles, Bonds, and Equilibria, Volume 1. Original problems from the textbook are included alongside detailed explanations and useful base knowledge required to successfully solve each problem. The material in this manual implements the innovative presentation of the material given in the companion textbook. Unlike nearly all chemistry solution manuals on the market, this volume is written by one of the textbook authors. This solutions manual can also be used as a source of additional problems to supplement any foundational chemistry text or course, including AP chemistry. It provides students with ample opportunity to build knowledge and mastery of basic chemistry concepts.

General Chemistry: Understanding Moles, Bonds, and Equilibria, Volume 1 introduces students to foundational concepts in chemistry with emphasis on real-world application. Throughout the text, students learn how the study of chemistry supports material science, forensics, medicine, and other disciplines. The text is organized into 13 chapters that can be taught traditionally or in a non-linear fashion. Topics include the scientific method, atoms, mass and molecules, aqueous solutions, gases, thermochemistry, electrons in atoms, and electron configuration. Students learn about chemical bonding, molecular geometry, liquids and solids, and mixtures. The book features problems that span multiple chapters, topic boxes that contain worked examples, concurrent presentation of the VSEPR and Valence Bond theories to allow each to reinforce the other, and integration of environmental topics within distinct sections of appropriate chapters. Introductions, summaries, problems, application examples, and meaningful appendices further facilitate student learning, rendering General Chemistry an ideal textbook for foundational chemistry courses. General Chemistry: Understanding Moles, Bonds, and Equilibria, Volume 2 is a continuation of this text with further coverage of equilibria, thermodynamics, nuclear chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry and biotechnology.

Chiral Phosphorous Based Ligands in Earth-Abundant Transition Metal Catalysis summarizes the most significant progress in the field of chiral phosphine ligand chemistry and a broad range of earth-abundant transition metal/chiral phosphine ligand-catalyzed enantioselective transformations. The book provides an authoritative and in-depth understanding of important topics about asymmetric catalysis based on earth-abundant transition metals/chiral phosphine ligands, making it ideal for organic chemistry researchers working in the field of asymmetric catalysis, synthetic methodologies and total synthesis. The development of new chiral phosphine ligands to achieve precise stereo control in many earth-abundant transition metal-catalyzed reactions is a very important field in organic synthesis, materials science and medicinal chemistry. The asymmetric synthesis promoted by transition metal/chiral phosphine ligands provides one of the most ideal ways to produce valuable optically active chemicals.

The Application of Green Solvents in Separation Processes features a logical progression of a wide range of topics and methods, beginning with an overview of green solvents, covering everything from water and organic solvents, to ionic liquids, switchable solvents, eutectic mixtures, supercritical fluids, gas-expanded solvents, and more. In addition, the book outlines green extraction techniques, such as green membrane extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, and surfactant-mediated extraction techniques. Green sampling and sample preparation techniques are then explored, followed by green analytical separations, including green gas and liquid capillary chromatography, counter current chromatography, supercritical fluid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, and other electrical separations. Applications of green chemistry techniques that are relevant for a broad range of scientific and technological areas are covered, including the benefits and challenges associated with their application.
