i decided to start studying physical chemistry (i'm in elementary school right now, i've just finished kindergarten) but my mathematical skills are not advanced enough for what i need to know in order to even get accustomed to this field. i only studied everything until precalc, mostly algebra, on my own and the subjects taught at school are not helpful in any way (addition and subtraction, i did that several years ago), so i want you to recommend me some math textbooks which would allow me to achieve the level of knowledge required for studying pchem. i want something on differential equations, integrals, derivatives, limits, all the stuff. any form of help is appreciated.

my apologies for my spelling or grammar mistakes, i'm at my 5th language.

i must disagree with your point of view since "baiting" is nowhere near the actual purpose of this tread. i only requested help from a highly knowledgeable and respected online scientific community, while also offering some of my academic background in order to inform the experienced reader about my actual necessities regarding mathematics.

please post only if you have suitable math textbooks to recommend. any form of help will be highly appreciated

You’re right, it’s bait + thesaurus >>11158270

You've sasid p-chem, yet posted a picture of inogranic chem which can best be described using group theory. Assuming your picture is correct you'll want Dirac's book: https://www.amazon.com/Principles-Quantum-Mechanics-International-Monographs/dp/0198520115
If you want p-chem, you need to get yourself a calculus and multivariable calculus book (there are a million good ones for each, you really cannot go wrong)

i thank you very much, kind anon, for your recommendation! i am looking forward to purchasing your book, would there be any other textbook you'd wholeheartedly recommend?
