For courses in chemistry. Actively engage students to become expert problem solvers and critical thinkers Nivaldo Tro's Chemistry: A Molecular Approach presents chemistry visually through multi-level images--macroscopic, molecular, and symbolic representations--to help students see the connections between the world they see around them, the atoms and molecules that compose the world, and the formulas they write down on paper. Interactive, digital versions of select worked examples instruct students how to break down problems using Tro's unique Sort, Strategize, Solve, and Check technique and then complete a step in the example. To build conceptual understanding, Dr. Tro employs an active learning approach through interactive media that requires students to pause during videos to ensure they understand before continuing. The 5th Edition pairs digital, pedagogical innovation with insights from learning design and educational research to create an active, integrated, and easy-to-use framework. The new edition introduces a fully integrated book and media package that streamlines course set up, actively engages students in becoming expert problem solvers, and makes it possible for professors to teach the general chemistry course easily and effectively. Also available with Mastering Chemistry By combining trusted author content with digital tools and a flexible platform, MyLab or Mastering] personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student.The fully integrated and complete media package allows instructors to engage students before they come to class, hold them accountable for learning during class, and then confirm that learning after class.

Nivaldo Tro is a chemistry professor at Westmont College in Santa Barbara, California, where he has worked since 1990. His Ph.D. was awarded to him. For work on creating and applying optical tools to examine the adsorption and desorption of molecules to and from surfaces in ultrahigh vacuum, he received a Ph.D. in chemistry from Stanford University. He then went on to perform post-doctoral research on ultra-fast reaction dynamics in solution at the University of California, Berkeley. Professor Tro has received funds from the American Chemical Society Petroleum Research Fund, Research Corporation, and the National Science Foundation to investigate the dynamics of diverse processes in thin adlayer films adsorbed on dielectric surfaces since arriving at Westmont.

He has been named Westmont's outstanding instructor of the year on two occasions, as well as the college's outstanding researcher of the year. Professor Tro, his wife Ann, and their four children, Michael, Ali, Kyle, and Kaden, live in Santa Barbara. Professor Tro spends his free time reading wonderful books to his children and spending time outside with his family.
