Assignments will be set through MasteringChemistry.

The Mastering Chemistry learning platform includes many suggested homework problems of various different styles. These range from simple multiple choice or calculation questions to more elaborate multi-step tutorial type questions. Many have hints available if needed. Mastering Chemistry is your main homework problem resource (in addition to being the place where graded quizzes are done).

The following is an attempt to list some relevant end-of-chapter problems that you may wish to try outside the Mastering Chemistry framework. Many of these suggested homework assignment problems are part of the corresponding homework assignment in Mastering Chemistry on-line, and that’s also where you must go to do the graded on-line quizzes.

We are unable to post solutions for these problems. There is a copy of Chemistry: The Central Science. Solutions to exercises, 12th edition on Reserve in the main library, and there are other solutions manuals there for earlier editions of the text. Working in the Mastering Chemistry site you can learn the correct answers to assignment problems.
