CHM 111: Updated study guides available

I noticed yesterday morning that the study guides previously posted for CHM 111 were outdated.  We’ve recently changed editions ofour textbook, and the study guides previously posted referred to practice problems in the old edition.  I have uploaded study guides for the new edition, and you can get them from [the study guide page].
