Study Guide and Solutions Manual, Intl. Edition for Hart/Hadad/Craine/Hart's Organic Chemistry: a Brief Course, International Edition, 13th

This study guide and solutions book was written to help you learn organic chemistry. The
principles and facts of this subject are not easily learned by simply reading them, even
repeatedly. Formulas, equations, and molecular structures are best mastered by written
practice. To help you become thoroughly familiar with the material, we have included many
problems within and at the end of each chapter in the text.
It is our experience that such questions are not put to their best use unless correct
answers are also available. Indeed, answers alone are not enough. If you know how to work
a problem and find that your answer agrees with the correct one, fine. But what if you work
conscientiously, yet cannot solve the problem? You then give in to temptation, look up the
answer, and encounter yet another dilemma–how in the world did the author get that
answer? This solutions book has been written with this difficulty in mind. For many of the
problems, all of the reasoning involved in getting the correct answer is spelled out in detail.
Many of the answers also include cross-references to the text. If you cannot solve a
particular problem, these references will guide you to parts of the text that you should
review.
