hmmm... ours is Chemistry & Chemical Reactivity. One of the authors is Kotz (??) It's not a bad book... I don't mind it.

I've got Zumdahl, sixth ed., and I actually really like it. It does all of these practice problems and stuff that really help, but it's also got all of these tuff homework assignments, too. In the text it gets pretty boring, cause it starts to say 'thus' allatime.

I used Brown, LeMay, and Bursten, Eighth edition. As for notes, I couldn't find any that were any good... Your book, lecture notes, your teacher, and your freaking-out-before-the-test-buddies will be your best source of information. Good luck!

We have the Zumdahl, 6th edition. That thing is TORTURE to read. And I used that book in Chem Honors last year, so I've been with it for TWO years. Ahh... :]

What's the bad thing about it for you? I'm using it, and I don't think it's THAT bad.

I also use the zumdahl (sp?) book and i found a good site that has the notes for each chapter. this way when i have a test, instead of reading the chapter, i just read the notes on this site. anyways, here it is...

Wow, wish I had found THIS earlier...I wonder why the notes don't go past Electrochemistry? Right now we're doing organic chemistry, and there aren't any notes for that. The links look promising, though...
