Ninth Edition of Steven and Susan Zumdahl’s
CHEMISTRY brings together the solid pedagogy,
easy-to-use media, and interactive exercises that
today’s instructors need for their general chemistry
course. Rather than focusing on rote memorization,
CHEMISTRY uses a thoughtful approach built on
problem-solving. For the Ninth Edition, the authors
have added a new emphasis on critical systematic
problem solving, new critical thinking questions,
and new computer-based interactive examples
to help students learn how to approach and solve
chemical problems--to learn to think like chemists-
-so that they can apply the process of problem
solving to all aspects of their lives. Students are
provided with the tools to become critical thinkers:
to ask questions, to apply rules and develop models,
and to evaluate the outcome. In addition, Steven
and Susan Zumdahl crafted ChemWork, an online
program included in OWL Online Web Learning to
support their approach, much as an instructor would
offer support during office hours. ChemWork is just
one of many study aids available with CHEMISTRY
that supports the hallmarks of the textbook--a strong
emphasis on models, real world applications, visual

• The second edition has been edited by college
chemistry professor, Dr Mark Oram. The book
combines the legitimacy of a conventional
textbook with the one-of-a-kind perspective of a
student who understands the pitfalls of learning
general chemistry. Bridging the gap between
a professor’s level of understanding and that of
a student is the hallmark of this unique survival

current experiments. All 28 experiments in the
manual have been revised for this edition.
• Help students develop their own experiments with
6 new experiments in the more challenging self-
directed format. Students use their knowledge,
skills, and techniques from prior concept/
technique-oriented experiments to solve an
assigned problem.
• Encourage strong laboratory fundamentals with 22
guided inquiry experiments, which lead students
through an experiment by asking a series of
questions.
