Organic Chemistry -- Modified Mastering Chemistry with Pearson eText Access Code

For courses in Organic Chemistry (2-semester).

Understand and Apply the Foundations of Organic Chemistry

Organic Chemistry provides students with the conceptual foundations, chemical logic, and problem-solving skills they need to reason their way to solutions for diverse problems in synthetic organic chemistry, biochemistry, and medicine. The text builds a strong framework for thinking about organic chemistry by unifying principles of reactivity, helping students to understand and apply learning rather than relying on memorization. Dr. Bruice consistently relates structure and reactivity to what occurs in our own cells, providing a practical base for abstract concepts. 

Personalize learning with Modified Mastering Chemistry 

By combining trusted author content with digital tools and a flexible platform, Mastering personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student. Mastering Chemistry provides an extension of learning, allowing students a platform to practice, learn, and apply knowledge outside of the classroom.
