This chemistry handbook provides a guide to all the key terms within chemistry. It has an A to Z format, and each entry begins with a clear, one-sentence definition and is followed by explanation and examples. The more important the term, the more detailed the entry. Entries are cross-referenced, to enable students to build up knowledge of particular topics for use in writing and in answering exam questions. There is a glossary of examiners' terms to help students judge the depth of answer required.
