Introduction to Chemistry: Chemical formulae, equations, gas laws and stoichiometric calculations

Introduction to Chemistry is the first book in a series of Chemistry tutorials for high-school and undergraduate college students. In contrast to formal textbooks, this tutorial directly answers most common students' questions — how to write a formula of a compound, balance a chemical equation, solve an elusive problem and ultimately pass the exam or just improve your grades.

Each chapter introduces a simple concept and immediately illustrates it with typical examples and problems of increasing complexity. Answers and detailed solutions to all self-study exercises are given at the end of the book.

Informal and easy-to-follow style of presentation engages students in chemistry, boosts their confidence and speeds up the learning process. In many ways, this series of tutorials is an efficient and inexpensive substitution for traditional face-to-face tuition.
