chapter 1 Elements, Atoms, and Electrons chapter 2 Covalent Bonding and Molecules chapter 3 Forces Within and Between Molecules chapter 4 Chemical Reactions chapter 5 Water chapter 6 Acids, Bases, and Buffers chapter 7 Gases chapter 8 Aliphatic Carbon Compounds chapter 9 Lipids, Sugars, and Linkages between Reactive Groups chapter 10 Aromatic Carbon Compounds and Isomerism chapter 11 Organic and Biological Reaction Mechanisms chapter 12 Sulphur and Phosphorus chapter 13 Oxidation and Reduction Reactions chapter 14 Metals in Biology chapter 15 Energy chapter 16 Reactions and Equilibrium chapter 17 Light.
The authors divide their analysis of carbon compounds into two chapters. One focuses exclusively on aliphatic carbon compounds, while the other provides a greatly expanded exploration of aromatic carbon compounds, isomerism, amines and amino acids, including benzene, aromaticity, types of isomerism, and absolute configuration. With a current examination of organic and biological reactions, this instructional volume also features end-of-chapter questions and provides a solutions manual for qualified instructors.
