Organic Chemistry (9th Edition)

Specifications

Book Description

NOTE: This edition contains the same material as the standard text, but it is presented in a more user-friendly format that is three-hole punched and loose-leaf. Books a la Carte are also an excellent value because the price of this format is significantly lower than that of a brand new textbook. Before making a purchase, you should check with your teacher or look over the syllabus for your class to ensure that you are selecting the appropriate ISBN. There are many different iterations of Pearson's MyLab & Mastering products available for each title, including ones that are specifically tailored to the needs of individual institutions; however, registrations cannot be shared. In addition, in order to register for and make use of Pearson's MyLab and Mastering products, you might be required to have a Course ID, which can be obtained from your professor.

An Approach to Teaching and Learning Organic Chemistry That Is Centered Around the Student

The core ideas of organic chemistry are laid out in Wade and Simek's Organic Chemistry, Ninth Edition, within the context of fundamental deductive and inductive reasoning, as well as problem-solving. Students are encouraged to use the text before class as a primary introduction to organic chemistry as well as a comprehensive study tool for working problems and/or preparing for exams. New Problem Solving Strategies, Partially Solved Problems, Visual Reaction Guides, and Reaction Starbursts were written to complement how students use a textbook today. These additions were authored to complement how students use a textbook today. Students are given a contemporary overview of organic principles, as well as the tools for organizing and comprehending reaction mechanisms and synthetic organic chemistry, in this Ninth edition that features pedagogy that is unparalleled and highly refined.

Additionally accessible through MasteringChemistryTM.

MasteringChemistry is the industry-leading online homework, tutorial, and assessment system that was developed by Pearson. Its purpose is to improve learning outcomes by actively engaging students before, during, and after class with high-impact content. The instructors ensure that the students come to class ready to learn by distributing content that is educationally effective before the class begins. They also encourage students' critical thinking and retention of information by providing in-class resources like Learning CatalyticsTM. Students can further their understanding of the concepts covered in class by completing traditional or adaptive homework assignments that offer hints and feedback that is specific to the answers provided. The Mastering gradebook compiles the scores of all automatically graded assignments into a single location, while diagnostic tools provide teachers with access to a wealth of data that can be used to evaluate student comprehension and identify areas of confusion.
