Chemistry for Environmental and Earth Sciences focuses on the chemistry and processes behind environmental issues such as global warming, ozone depletion, acid rain, water pollution, and soil contamination. Accessible to science as well as non-science majors, this textbook is divided into four intuitive chapters: Fire, Earth, Water, and Air. It uses worked examples and case studies drawn from current applications along with clear diagrams and concise explanations to illustrate the relevance of chemistry to geosciences. In-text and end-of-chapter questions with complete solutions also help students gain confidence in applying concepts from this book towards solving current, real-world problems.
