Chemistry Drill and Practice Tutorials

These problems were developed by Prof. George Wiger (gwiger@chemistry.csudh.edu) at California State University, Dominguez Hills. They have been reorganized for use with "Chemistry and Chemical Reactivity" by Kotz and Treichel and are used here with his permission. Problems with a (DP) are Drill and practice problems. Problems with a (WP) are word problems. Problems with a (DA) are data analysis problems.
