About this ebook
The Chemical Principles, Cengage International Edition (9th Edition) by Steven S. Zumdahl and Donald J. DeCoste provides a mathematically rigorous introduction to chemistry tailored for highly motivated students. [1, 2]
Foundations & Stoichiometry
- Chapter 1: Chemists and Chemistry / Chemical Foundations – Introduction to chemical modeling, measurements, and unit conversions.
- Chapter 2: Atoms, Molecules, and Ions – Atomic structure, the periodic table, and early chemical history.
- Chapter 3: Stoichiometry – Atomic masses, mole concepts, chemical formulas, equations, and limiting reactants.
- Chapter 4: Types of Chemical Reactions and Solution Stoichiometry – Aqueous solutions, precipitation reactions, acid-base chemistry, and oxidation-reduction. [1, 2]
States of Matter & Thermodynamics
- Chapter 5: Gases – Gas laws, ideal gas behavior, kinetic molecular theory, effusion, diffusion, and real gases.
- Chapter 6: Chemical Equilibrium – Equilibrium constants, the equilibrium condition, and Le Chatelier's principle.
- Chapter 7: Acids and Bases – Acid strength, pH, calculating pH of weak/strong solutions, and polyprotic acids.
- Chapter 8: Aqueous Solution Equilibria – Buffer solutions, titrations, solubility equilibria, and complex ion chemistry.
- Chapter 9: Thermochemistry – Enthalpy, calorimetry, Hess's law, and standard enthalpies of formation.
- Chapter 10: Entropy, Gibbs Energy, and Spontaneity – The laws of thermodynamics, free energy change, and the relationship between free energy and equilibrium.
- Chapter 11: Electrochemistry – Galvanic cells, cell potential, the Nernst equation, batteries, and electrolysis. [1, 2]
Atomic Structure & Bonding
- Chapter 12: Quantum Mechanics and Atomic Theory – The wave-particle duality, Bohr model, orbital shapes, quantum numbers, and periodic trends.
- Chapter 13: Bonding: General Concepts – Ionic and covalent bonding models, electronegativity, Lewis structures, and resonance.
- Chapter 14: Covalent Bonding: Orbitals – Valence bond theory, hybridization of orbitals, and molecular orbital theory. [1, 2]
Kinetics & Condensed Phases
- Chapter 15: Chemical Kinetics – Reaction rates, rate laws, reaction mechanisms, catalysis, and temperature dependency.
- Chapter 16: Liquids and Solids – Intermolecular forces, phase changes, crystal structures, vapor pressure, and phase diagrams.
- Chapter 17: Properties of Solutions – Solubilities, colligative properties (vapor pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, osmotic pressure), and ideal solutions. [1, 2]
Descriptive & Nuclear Chemistry
- Chapter 18: The Representative Elements – Groups 1A through 8A chemistry, molecular structures, and chemical properties.
- Chapter 19: Transition Metals and Coordination Chemistry – Bonding in complex ions, coordination compounds, and crystal field theory.
- Chapter 20: The Nucleus: A Chemist's View – Nuclear stability, radioactive decay, nuclear fission, fusion, and thermodynamic effects.
