Atkins Physical Chemistry 11th Edition

Atkins' Physical Chemistry is widely acknowledged by both students and instructors around the globe to be the textbook of choice for studying physical chemistry. The eleventh edition has been enhanced with additional learning features and math support, and reorganized into discrete Topics, to make the text more flexible for teachers and more readable for students.

NEW TO THIS EDITION

• Significant re-working of the book's structure improves digestibility and flexibility; the material has been broken down into short ‘Topics’ which are organized into ‘Focus’ sections
• Three questions at the beginning of each topic engage and focus the attention of the reader: ‘Why do you need to know this material?’, ‘What is the key idea?’, and ‘What do you need to know already?
• Expanded and redistributed support includes new ‘chemist’s toolkits’ which provide students with succinct reminders of mathematical, physical, and chemical concepts and techniques at the point of use
• An alternative approach to the derivation of equations is used to demonstrate the absolute centrality of mathematics to physical chemistry by bringing the reader to the point where progress can be made only by doing some maths. In this new ‘How is that done approach the reader is brought to a question, and then the maths is used to show how it can be answered and progress made
• Checklists of key concepts at the end of each topic reinforce the main take-home messages from the material just covered
• End of Topic and Focus problems have been rewritten with the goal of leading the reader to a solution, breaking them down into clear steps, and encouraging problem-solving skills
