Learning the fundamentals of chemistry can be a difficult
task to undertake for health professionals. For over 35 years, Foundations
Chemistry has helped them master the chemistry skills they need to
succeed. It provides them with clear and logical explanations of chemical
concepts and problem solving. They’ll learn how to apply concepts with the
help of worked out examples. In addition, Chemistry in Action features
and conceptual questions checks brings together the
understanding of chemistry and relates chemistry to things health
professionals experience on a regular basis. The seamless integration of Foundations
Chemistry, 14th Edition with WileyPLUS,
a research-based, online environment for effective teaching and learning,
that helps track individual student proficiency so that students excel in
chemistry. WileyPLUS with ORION sold separately from the text. 1 An Introduction to Chemistry 1 1.1 The Nature of Chemistry 2 1.2 A Scientific Approach to
