Chemistry: Structure and Properties

Chemistry: Structure and Properties, 2nd Edition, is a textbook by Nivaldo J. Tro published by Pearson. The work is organized around the foundational premise that matter is composed of particles, and that the structure of those particles determines the properties of matter.

The text develops chemistry as a connected narrative advancing from microscopic structure to macroscopic phenomena. Major areas of study include atomic theory, the quantum-mechanical model of the atom, thermochemistry, and the physical characteristics of gases, liquids, and solids.

To support learning, the volume provides chapter exercises designed to guide students step by step through practice problem-solving across general chemistry topics.
