<p>Will the 6th edition of Chemistry Zumdahl differ greatly from the 8th edition? There's a good
$100 difference in the used books, and I would love to spare $100.</p>
<p>no. get chemistry the central science while ur at it. its better.</p>
<p>what do you base that on?</p>
<p>I don’t think it matters that much for AP Chemistry because it hasn’t changed significantly for years…you’ll be fine.</p>
<p>First chemistry the central science is a much more concise, yet very fluent text. It explains everything MUCH nicer in step by step order than Zumdahl does. Secondly, It is actually a fun textbook to read. The diagrams, and pictures are so rich in color it sort of draws you in. Zumdahl you get the feeling of a very hardcord, thick, boring textbook.</p>
