Chemistry: The Molecular Nature of Matter and Change
this is the book we use in our gen chem class. I'm sure many other kids here use this as well. Is it me or does this book do a really bad job explaining chemistry? The information and knoweldge just doesn't seem to be relayed effectively by the author, and he goes way off subject sometimes. I mean i spend like 4-5 hours dissecting the chapter, then getting a really good understanding of the chapter, but this is because of the poor organizatino of the book. But then i end up forgetting most of it the next day. I know concepts are stressed over memorization, but i feel like all the concepts are for the most part easy just ridiculously tedious.
anyways, going back to chem reading. woo woo
