Project Description
Chemistry: Core Concepts, 3rd Edition
Blackman, Southam, Lawrie, Williamson, Thompson
The third edition of Chemistry: Core Concepts (Blackman et al.) has been developed by a group of leading chemistry educators for students entering university with little or no background in chemistry.
Available as a full-colour printed textbook with an interactive eBook code, this title enables every student to master concepts and succeed in assessment. Lecturers are supported with an extensive and easy-to-use teaching and learning package.
State-of-the-Art Resources
Lightboard videos of worked problems from trusted educators engage students in a meaningful way while breaking down more challenging concepts into bite-sized chunks.
Fully Worked Solutions
Concept reviews, interactive worked examples, visualisations, and knowledge check questions in-situ allow students to review, practice and apply what they have learned.
Digestible Content
Topics are broken down into digestible chapters that help ease students into the content.
- Content has been further simplified for students without a chemistry background.
- Chemical Connections boxes: Appropriate boxes from Blackman, 5th Edition have been included, several brand-new boxes, others refreshed as needed.
- 10% of Review Problems have been refreshed or replaced.
