How should I cite sources in a Chemistry research paper?

Question

I was thinking I would cite them in APA format.
The bibliography in one of my chemistry books cites sources as follows:

Atkins, P. (1995). The Periodic Kingdom. Weidenfeld & Nicolson, London.

whereas APA style says to cite it as

Atkins, P. (1995). The Periodic Kingdom. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson.

PLEASE HELP!!

typically profs dont care how you cite, as long as you pick one format and it is consistant. One problem with citations is that they change so often and there are so many different formats, like APA, MLA, Chicago, etc.

I'd say that either the problem is that your book is using a different citation than APA, which is the american psych association and usually used for social sciences/humanities, or it is an older book and used an outdated version of APA. I'm sure chemistry has a specific citation format for it, but I wouldn't worry about it unless your prof specifically mentioned a certain type of format, or you think this paper will be published. Otherwise, just stick to one format, like APA, and be consistant throughout the paper and its doubtful your prof will mention anything.

in case you comprehend the author of the web website, then your inline quotation will be (very last call, First preliminary). in case you do not comprehend the author of the web website, then the inline quotation will be (identify of cyber web website) - no longer the web website deal with, purely the identify.
