This best-selling text owes its success to its conceptual approach to problem solving, high-quality end-of-chapter problems, and student-friendly writing style. A robust technology package accompanies the Sixth Edition and includes access to online tutoring and ChemWork, a dynamic online homework system.

Chemistry emphasizes the qualitative understanding of concepts, and models and real-world applications appear throughout the book. Coverage of models includes how they are constructed, how they are tested, and what students learn when they inevitably fail.

• A superior technology package offers both students and instructors a multitude of resources to facilitate learning and teaching.
• The text's art program has been extensively revised to include more molecular-level illustrations of core concepts that help students connect the macroscopic to the molecular level.
