Zusatztext The best way to develop essential mathematical skills is through practice, and Beginning Mathematics for Chemistry by Stephen Scott can help with this. If you follow the examples and try the exercises in this workbook, you should soon lose your fear of algebra, logarithms, and the like.New Scientist Klappentext This workbook provides introductory material through which students can build confidence through practice in the areas of mathematics they need for first year chemistry courses. The workbook can be applied to individual study or for large group teaching. It aims to develop a mathematics `toolkit' rather than being a formal mathematics course. Material is introduced through chemistry examples and students are then given worked examples and exercises withsolutions. This book will allow students to overcome mathematical difficulties through self-paced study! enabling them to see through to the chemical concepts in their lectures. not have a strong mathematics background can gain confidence in the parts of mathematics appropriate to first-year chemistrycourses. Material is introduced through chemistry examples and students are then given worked examples and exercises to do (with answers).
