Hi Heather, are you taking a chemistry class? It is indeed a detailed subject with many facets, requiring lots of time and effort to get to the point of really understanding it. You have to start with the basics and build up. Then you will be more familiar and comfortable with the terms and concepts of the later material. Most of the chapters in chemistry textbooks use concepts and formulas covered in previous chapters, so the material can really snowball if you fall behind. Anyway, good luck, and feel free to post any questions here! Steve |
