CHEMICAL PRINCIPLES By Zumdahl

 

Chemical Principles by S. S. Zumdahl is a beautiful compilation of 

almost every aspect of general basic and general chemistry, including 

chemical bonding, chemistry of elements, physical phenomena in 

solution and gas phase, chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, 

electrochemistry, quantum mechanics, organic and biomolecules, 

equilibrium, acids and bases etc. 

Highly recommended for students aspirant to appear in GRE subject 

(chemistry) examination.

The book comprises of 22 chapters. Appendix at the end give more useful information such as mathematical procedures, spectral data etc..
