chem1 virtual textbook
a reference text for General Chemistry
Stephen Lower
Simon Fraser University
The pages in this section of the Chem1 Virtual Textbook present an overview of the condensed states of matter. Although there is more detail than can be found in standard textbooks, the level is still suitable for first-year college and advanced high school courses. These pages should be especially helpful as review material for students in more advanced courses in chemistry, geology, and materials science.
The Chem1 Virtual Textbook is a
resource for General Chemistry aimed mainly at the first-year
university level.
It offers a more comprehensive, organized,
and measured approach than is found in most standard
textbooks. It should also be accessible to advanced
high-school courses, and helpful as review material for
students in more advanced courses in chemistry, biology,
geology, and engineering.
