Publisher's Synopsis
Those of us who work in chemistry or who work closely with chemicals, whether it is in a field of industrial engineering or in physics sample preparation, are familiar with a few chemicals that we use every day.
However, a large number of high school science students are probably conversant with a much wider range of inorganic compounds. They spend months memorizing formulae that correspond to compound names, and learn nomenclature rules and quirks like the number of molecules of water of hydration. This book will let you test if you are smarter than a high schooler!
