In this research, some of the strengths and weaknesses of the book have been addressed by using educational theories in teaching chemistry as well as scientific resources in the different branches of chemistry, as well as collecting the results of a survey of a number of chemistry teachers. In this research, we have focused on the main presupposition of the problem, i.e. the use of appropriate scientific and educational content, and in order to improve the scientific level and provide more educational goals, a review and critique of the tenth chemistry written in the Educational Research and Planning Organization has been done. In a part of this research, using the principles and techniques of education in a survey research, 160 colleagues of chemistry teachers working in three provinces of the country with more than 8 years of experience were surveyed.
