Introduction

Youve passed the first hurdle in understanding a little about chemistry: Youve picked up Chemistry For Dummies, 2nd Edition. I imagine that a large number of people looked at the title, saw the word chemistry, and bypassed it like it was covered in germs.

I dont know how many times Ive been on vacation, struck up a conversation with someone, and been asked the dreaded question: What do you do?

Im a teacher, I reply.

Really? And what do you teach?

I steel myself, grit my teeth, and say in my most pleasant voice, Chemistry.

I see The Expression, followed by, Oh, I never took chemistry. It was too hard. Or You must be smart to teach chemistry. Or Goodbye! If I were still in the dating scene, Hi, I teach chemistry would not be a good pick-up line!

I think a lot of people feel this way because they think that chemistry is too abstract, too mathematical, too removed from their real lives. But in one way or another, all of us do chemistry.

Remember making that baking soda and vinegar volcano as a child? Thats chemistry. Do you cook or clean or use fingernail polish remover? All that is chemistry. I never had a chemistry set as a child, but I always loved science. My high school chemistry teacher was a great biology teacher but really didnt know much chemistry. But when I took my first chemistry course in college, the labs hooked me. I enjoyed seeing the colors of the solids coming out of solutions. I enjoyed synthesis, making new compounds. The idea of making something nobody else had ever made before fascinated me. I wanted to work for a chemical company, doing research, but then I discovered my second love: teaching.

Chemistry is sometimes called the central science (mostly by chemists), because in order to have a good understanding of biology or geology or even physics, you must have a good understanding of chemistry. Ours is a chemical world, and I hope that you enjoy discovering the chemical nature of it and that afterward, you wont find the word chemistry so frightening.

About This Book

My goal with this book is not to make you into a chemistry major. My goal is simply to give you a basic understanding of some chemical topics that commonly appear in high school or college introductory chemistry courses. If youre taking a course, use this book as a reference in conjunction with your notes and textbook.

Simply watching people play tennis, no matter how intently you watch them, will not make you a tennis star. You need to practice. And the same is true with chemistry. Its not a spectator sport. If youre taking a chemistry course, then you need to practice and work on problems. I show you how to work certain types of problems gas laws, for example but use your textbook for practice problems. Its work, yes, but it really can be fun.

As I updated this second edition of Chemistry For Dummies, I reflected on what to include. Ive enjoyed getting e-mails from people all over the world asking questions about the first edition or thanking me. However, looking at the overall feedback, I felt that I hadnt included quite enough about calculations and some other topics that students taking a college or high schoollevel class really needed. So in this second edition I beefed up the calculations and included some extra topics normally found in the first year of high school chemistry or the first semester of general chemistry in college. Overall, this edition will be more useful to those of you taking the chemistry course. For those of you who want some help with second-semester topics, hang in there and maybe, just maybe, youll soon see
