Part 1. The Unfinished Story

Fall 2022

This is the text for GenChem I (Chem 201) classes. This is a "working text" with work-in Examples and other types of fill-ins. The text is written in a more conversational style for clearer understanding.  This text is also leaner than many other General Chemistry.  The online text is accessed by the links below.
