Exploring Chemical Analysis provides an ideal one-term text for both chemistry majors and non-majors. Its coverage of analytical and problem-solving methods teaches students how to understand analytical results and how to use quantitative manipulations, preparing them for the problems they will encounter in fields from biology to chemistry to geology. The book contains coverage of chemical equilibrium in the areas of activity, systematic treatment of equilibrium, solubility, EDTA titration curves, and redox titration curves.

 

The new Third Edition contains a new chapter on Quality Assurance/Quality Control, and enhanced coverage of spectrometry and chromatography. In addition to giving students the fundamentals of chemical analysis, the book has an abundance of new applications and research in the field, making Exploring Chemical Analysis, Third Edition a text that students will be able to use and draw upon again and again in all future science courses.

Fun stuff :)Three Stars hate this book... everything is repeated like previous editionsinorganic/analytical chemistry textbook This book occasionally uses the first person voice, including examples phrased "when I was a boy..." and "I find it easier to..." which strikes me as very unprofessional. Furthermore, some of the simplifications are inaccurate; electromagnetic radiation (EMR), for instance, is qualified as a fancy way of saying light, which is only true in a certain range of wavelengths, as the chapter explains. Chapter headings are also less-than-professional, as in the aforementioned section on EMR labeled "Let There Be Light." It may be a way of bridging the gap between teacher and student in the eyes of the author, but in my opinion, it is more patronizing than endearing.The explanations are often long-winded and hide important points and definitions in lengthy paragraphs. The glossary could be improved: Planck's constant is referenced in the text but not in the glossary. The rest of the reference section is highly useful but hard to navigate until the student labels the sections with post-it notes him/herself.Formatting is generally easy on the eyes. The use of the color blue in subsection titles, particular atoms of interest in a molecule diagram, underlines, examples, etc. is helpful. Eight glossy, thick pages in the middle show colorful experiments or particularly interesting applications of concepts.The example/solution/test-yourself format of in-text applications of a concept is a useful and well-designed tool. End-of-chapter problems are in just the right difficulty range for a professor to be able to choose a difficulty level and assign problems on all concepts covered. Overall relatively easy to understand and pretty good for homework questions.Paperback version is flimsy -- won't stand up on a bookshelf, covers easily damaged, corners very quickly worn down and bent if the book is carried in a bag or backpack at all.
