With Chemistry: Structure and Properties, author Nivaldo Tro tells the story of chemistry with an atoms-first approach, emphasizing that matter is composed of particles, and the structure of those particles determines the properties of matter. This relationship is the thread that weaves all of chemistry together and is applied to all aspects of the text.

The 2nd Edition builds 21st-century skills, engaging you through new end-of-chapter Data Interpretation and Analysis questions that present real data in real life situations and ask you to interpret the data.
