The Big Fat Notebook series helps middle-school and high-school students master their studies. This one is for chemistry, written in the same humorous style, with important concepts explained in ways that make sense to young learners. It covers structure of matter, chemical reactions, biochemistry, acids and bases, and much more. Each chapter explains a concept on one page

Summary
The Big Fat Notebooks go to high school! A lively, fully illustrated guide to acing high school chemistry, with clear notes on the big ideas, helpful tips for memorizing processes and remembering definitions, and lively doodles that make science easier to understand (and fun to study).

Chemistry? No problem!

This Big Fat Notebook covers everything you need to know during a year of high school chemistry class, breaking down one big bad subject into accessible units. Learn to study better and get better grades using mnemonic devices, definitions, diagrams, educational doodles, and quizzes to recap it all.

Including:
  • Atoms, elements, compounds and mixtures
  • The periodic table
  • Quantum theory
  • Bonding
  • The mole
  • Chemical reactions and calculations
  • Gas laws
  • Solubility
  • pH scale
  • Titrations
  • Le Chatelier's principle
...and much more!

Contributor Bio(s)
Not only was Jennifer Swanson the kid with the great notes when she was in high school, but she went on to become a National Science Teaching Association award-winning science instructor and the author of more than 25 children's books (her writing has appeared on Booklist's Top 10 Books).
