Book Description:
The Princeton Review realizes that acing the SAT II: Chemistry exam is very different from getting straight As in school. They don't try to teach students everything there is to know about chemistry--only what they'll need to score higher on the exam. There's a big difference. In Cracking the SAT II: Chemistry, The Princeton Review will teach test takers how to think like the test makers and:* Learn test-taking strategies that will help students outsmart the test and improve scores* Ace the exam by becoming familiar with the format* Use the Process of Elimination and the divide and conquer method to solve complicated problems* Perfect test-taking skills with practice questions and detailed answer explanations*** This book includes 2 full-length simulated SAT II: Chemistry exams. All of the sample test questions are just like the ones test takers will see on the actual exam, and every solution is fully explained.Contents Include:I IntroductionII Test StrategiesIII Some Basic StuffMass VolumeDensityPressureEnergyTemperature and Specific HeatIV Elements, Atoms, and IonsAtoms and ElementsV Chemical Reaction and StoichiometryMoleculesThe MoleChemical ReactionsReaction StoichiometryEntropyEnthalpySpontaneity and Gibbs Free EnergyVI Electron configurations and RadioactivityElectrons and OrbitalsRadioactivityVII The Periodic Table and BondingThe Periodic TableMore About the Periodic Table: Some Important TrendsVIII Solids, Liquids, and GasesGasesIntermolecular ForcesPhase ChangesEnergy and Phase ChangesIX SolutionsSolutionsConcentrationsSolubility and SaturationX Kinetics and EquilibriumKineticsFactors that Affect Reaction RateReversible Reactions and Chemical EquilibriumLe Chatelier's PrincipleXI Acids and BasesAcids and BasesTitrationXII Redox and ElectrochemistryOxidation and ReductionElectrochemistryXIII Organic ChemistryHydrocarbonsFunctional GroupsXIV LaboratorySafety RulesAccuracySignificant FiguresLab ProceduresLaboratory EquipmentXV Practice Tests
