Organic Chemistry and Solution Manuals

Organic Chemistry and Solution ManualsThis is the third edition of Janice Smith's Organic Chemistry and Solution Manuals. This title is now in its third printing and there are no reviews on it yet. The third edition covers all the topics that were introduced in the first two editions with some new material.Janice Smith introduced these, as a gift to her students to help them with their chemistry homework, but they have more features than just being a chemistry book, she actually created a series of course projects that the students can follow for practice and learn from. There are problems, labs, quizzes, and the labs are put in every chapter of the text.I think it is great to have a Chemistry textbook that is geared towards an online learning system. You can take notes at the same time and even do online homework or projects at the same time. Also there are not any homework, projects, quizzes or tests in this book, that will affect the scores in any way. There are other materials li ke the class assignments are due before you can start your course.One of the best things about Organic Chemistry is the lab where you can study the solution to the experiment. There are actually also online labs that you can use to practice and see what the solution is, by yourself. These are put in every chapter of the text for quick reference.Janice Smith offers detailed explanations for all the chemistry topics. One thing that struck me about this text was that the pre-exam review chapters were actually listed right at the beginning of the book, as if it was a bit of a guide. Some of the chapter headings go into great detail about what you need to know for your pre-exam study session. One of the most recommended courses that Janice Smith has made available is called 'Becoming Scientific'. This is a way for you to better understand how the scientific method works, how different experiments are done, the different types of experiments, and how the basics of chemistry apply to them. Overall, Organic Chemistry is an interesting book. If you find yourself struggling with Chemistry, this is a great read for you to get a refresher.
