General Chemistry 3e: OER for Inclusive Learning
Nicole Bouvier-Brown; Saori Shiraki; J. Hunt; Emily Jarvis · Loyola Marymount University · 2026
General Chemistry 3e: OER for Inclusive Learning supports students in developing conceptual understanding and quantitative problem-solving skills across the core topics of a two-semester general chemistry course. The text combines clear explanations with scaffolded practice and interactive, formative H5P exercises that allow students to test their understanding, receive immediate feedback, and build confidence over time. Real-world applications, including sustainability and green chemistry, help connect chemical principles to contemporary scientific and societal contexts.

Laboratory Manual: General Chemistry II Honors
Adedoyin Adeyiga · The Pennsylvania Alliance for Design of Open Textbooks (PA-ADOPT) · 2025
General Chemistry II Honors Laboratory Manual (2025) is designed to expose students to labs with applications. Chemical instrumentation for analyses of different substances is showcased; analysis of common household and environmental samples was delved into. The belief is that honors level students should get early introduction to chemical instrumentation and their use in carrying out sample testing and analysis.

Laboratory Manual: General Chemistry I Honors
Adedoyin Adeyiga · The Pennsylvania Alliance for Design of Open Textbooks (PA-ADOPT) · 2023
General Chemistry I Honors Laboratory Manual (2023) is an eTextbook designed to provide a practical, hands-on approach to learning chemistry for students taking General Chemistry I Honors courses. The manual covers fundamental principles of chemistry, including atomic structure, chemical bonding, stoichiometry, gas laws, and thermodynamics. The book is divided into chapters, each focusing on a specific topic. Each experiment in the manual is accompanied by step-by-step instructions, pre-lab questions, and post-lab questions, helping students to develop their analytical and problem-solving skills.

General Chemistry: Principles, Patterns, and Applications
Bruce Averill; Patricia Eldredge · Saylor Foundation · 2011
The overall goal of the authors with General Chemistry: Principles, Patterns, and Applications was to produce a text that introduces the students to the relevance and excitement of chemistry. Although much of first-year chemistry is taught as a service course, Bruce and Patricia feel there is no reason that the intrinsic excitement and potential of chemistry cannot be the focal point of the text and the course. So, they emphasize the positive aspects of chemistry and its relationship to students' lives, which requires bringing in applications early and often. In addition, the authors feel that many first year chemistry students have an enthusiasm for biologically and medically relevant topics, so they use an integrated approach in their text that includes explicit discussions of biological and environmental applications of chemistry. Topics relevant to materials science are also introduced to meet the more specific needs of engineering students. To facilitate integration of such material, simple organic structures, nomenclature, and reactions are introduced very early in the text, and both organic and inorganic examples are used wherever possible. This approach emphasizes the distinctions between ionic and covalent bonding, thus enhancing the students' chance of success in the organic chemistry course that traditionally follows general chemistry. Finally, the authors made a conscious effort to treat material that has traditionally been relegated to boxes, and thus perhaps perceived as peripheral by the students, by incorporating it into the text to serve as a learning tool. To begin the discussion of chemistry rapidly, the traditional first chapter introducing units, significant figures, conversion factors, dimensional analysis, and so on, has been reorganized. The material has been placed in the chapters where the relevant concepts are first introduced, thus providing three advantages: Eliminates the tedium of the traditional approach, which introduces mathematical
