Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Use 5th edition if you can...
There is very little difference between this edition and the previous one which is normally the case with college textbooks today. It's a mystery to me why colleges use any material by this author.

Chemical Principles is a fantastic book! I use it as a reference text with anything i dont understand being looked up straight away in this book. I am a high school student who has found this book to be very useful in my studies of chemistry!
I recommend that you buy this book as i found it easy to understand and has many examples questions and activities for you to do.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Why does my university use this book?
Why does my university use this book? The University of Washington uses this book to weed out the pre med students. Why do they choose this book? Zumdahl purposely wrote this book to be confusing. Try reading pp. 668 through 670 in the fifth edition. He wrote this to be especially confusing by not being consistent with phase signs nor giving clear statements, such as "When the phase of the right orbital is reversed and combined with the left orbital." What orbitals is he talking about? The ones on a figure, ... Read More
