The CELTA Course offers a comprehensive preparation program for the CELTA syllabus, endorsed by Cambridge ESOL. It features structured sections including input sessions covering learner contexts, teaching methods, and professional development, alongside teaching practice and classroom observation. The Trainee Book provides essential materials and guidance, while the Trainer's Manual offers strategies for effective teaching. An introductory questionnaire and a concluding review test ensure trainees grasp key concepts and terminology, enhancing their learning experience.

aspects of the learning process are fully supported, including the understanding of terminology, notation, mathematical concepts, and the application of physical chemistry to other branches of science." "Building on the heritage of the world-renowned Atkins' Physical Chemistry , Quanta, Matter, and Change gives a refreshing new insight into the familiar by illuminating physical chemistry from a new direction." --Book Jacket.

A non-mathematical and highly visual account of the concepts of quantum mechanics widely encountered in chemistry and related disciplines, now completely revised and updated, with many more illustrations.

Explains how diagrams are used to represent chemical bonds, and describes the structure and characteristics of molecules encountered in everyday life

Molecular Quantum Mechanics explores the principles of quantum mechanics as they relate to matter, including atomic and molecular structures. The book features clear explanations, illustrations, and updated computational techniques. It includes an Online Resource Centre with interactive worksheets and solutions for students and instructors.

This is a journey of imagination in which the periodic table is treated as a country, a periodic kingdom, each region of which corresponds to an element. The book introduces the reader (who needs no prior knowledge of chemistry) to the general features of the table, the history of the elements and the underlying arrangement of the table in terms of the structure and properties of atoms.

Chimie physique d'Atkins reste la référence internationale en la matière depuis près de 30 ans. Cette nouvelle édition, toute en couleurs, est toujours aussi animée d'un grand souci pédagogique. En témoignent les nombreux nouveaux éléments qui accompagneront l'étudiant durant son étude. Tout au long du livre, les auteurs adoptent une démarche claire et rigoureuse montrant comment se construit une théorie au départ d’idées, de modèles simples que l’on amende, structure, développe au fil des découvertes. Le texte est toujours organisé en trois parties, qui correspondent à trois approches de la matière. La première partie en étudie les propriétés sous l’angle de la thermodynamique. La deuxième fait appel à la mécanique quantique et explique comment le comportement des atomes individuels influence ses propriétés. Quant à la troisième, elle étudie les caractéristiques physiques, électrochimiques et cinétiques des réactions chimiques. La troisième édition française propose une ouverture vers des domaines connexes (sciences de l'environnement, biochimie, météorologie...), mis en valeur sous forme d'encadrés, et s'enrichit des tout derniers développements intervenus dans les secteurs techniques de pointe (femtochimie, nanotechnologie). La terminologie utilisée est conforme aux recommandations de l’UICPA (Union Internationale de Chimie Pure et Appliquée).

The laws of thermodynamics drive everything that happens in the universe. From the expansion of a cloud of gas to the cooling of hot metal, and from the unfurling of a leaf to the course of life itself - everything is directed and constrained by four simple laws. Peter Atkins' powerful introduction explains what the laws are and how they work.

Mastering the fundamentals of physical chemistry is a challenge for many. This edition is designed to attain a thorough understanding of this vital branch of chemistry.
