Advances in Catalysis, Vol. 51
by Bruce C. Gates (Editor), Helmut Knoezinger (Editor)

Catalysis is the acceleration of a chemical reaction by a catalyst, a substance that notably affects the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being consumed or altered. Since 1948, Advances in Catalysis has filled the gap between the papers that report on and the textbooks that teach in the diverse areas of catalysis research. The editors of and contributors to Advances in Catalysis are dedicated to recording progress in this area.

* Provides a comprehensive review of all aspects of catalytic research
* Contains in-depth, critical, state-of-the-art reports

Chemistry For Dummies
by John T. Moore EdD, Rich Tennant (Illustrator)

We’re all natural born chemists. Every time we cook, clean, take a shower, drive a car, use a solvent, such as fingernail polish remover, or perform any of the countless everyday activities that involve complex chemical reactions we’re doing chemistry. You might even say that we’re all participating in a grand chemistry experiment that started with the first human who mixed pigments to do a cave painting. Why do so many of us desperately resist learning chemistry when we’re young? Maybe it has something to do with the way it’s taught in school.

Now there’s a fun, easy way to learn basic chemistry. Whether you’re studying chemistry in school and you’re looking for a little help making sense of what’s being taught in class, or you’re just into learning new things for their own sake, Chemistry For Dummies gets you rolling with all the basics of matter and energy, atoms and molecules, acids and bases, and much more. In no time you’ll:

Understand atomic structure and function
Use the Periodic Table of elements
Know what happens when matter changes from one state to another
Explore ionic and covalent bonding
Get a handle on chemical reactions
Perform simple chemistry calculations
Understand acids, bases, pHs, antacids, and gases
Make sense Boyle’s Law, Avrogadro’s Law and other key laws in chemistry
