The foundational knowledge they cultivate through the text can be applied to a number of scientific fields, including engineering, healthcare, forensics, pharmacology, and nursing. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The text begins with a chapter dedicated to the explanation of atoms and compounds. Later chapters provide students with information regarding the periodic table, chemical reactions and equations, solutions, kinetics and equilibria, and acid-base chemistry. Readers gain a solid understanding of sources of energy, oxidation-reduction reactions, toxicology and pharmacology, the fundamentals of organic chemistry, and more. The book concludes with a chapter that speaks to agricultural chemistry. Helpful appendices provide readers with quick references to fundamental constants, conversion factors, aqueous and standard reduction potentials, and dissociation constants of some acids. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eGeneral Chemistry\u003c\/em\u003e is designed to support a two-semester course within the discipline, especially those that focus on the practical application of chemistry-related concepts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrian Dixon\u003c\/strong\u003e is an associate professor in the Science \u0026amp; Mathematics Department at Massachusetts Maritime Academy, where he teaches courses in physics and chemistry.
