Preparing for Your ACS Examination in General Chemistry: The Official Guide, Second Edition
(commonly called the General Chemistry Study Guide)
ISBN: 978-1-7327764-0-1
This paperback guide includes 201 pages of information separated into First-Term and Second-Term General Chemistry material. Each section contains 8 chapters that align to most General Chemistry textbooks for a seamless addition to study materials for students.
Each chapter is designed with three sections:
- Introductory section of the material, including common representations and where to find this material in a textbook.
- Worked examples of typical multiple-choice questions, A.K.A. Study Questions (SQs), including how the correct and incorrect answers are determined.
- A series of Practice Questions (PQs) to test the concepts collectively. The key is provided on a separate page for all Practice and Study Questions. Each Study Question also includes a listing of the corresponding Practice Questions that employ the same concepts.
