Riassunto

Inorganic Chemistry provides essential information in the major areas of inorganic chemistry. The author emphasizes fundamental principles―including molecular structure, acid-base chemistry, coordination chemistry, ligand field theory, and solid state chemistry ― and presents topics in a clear, concise manner.

Concise coverage maximizes student understanding and minimizes the inclusion of details students are unlikely to use. The discussion of elements begins with survey chapters focused on the main groups, while later chapters cover the elements in greater detail. Each chapter opens with narrative introductions and includes figures, tables, and end-of-chapter problem sets.

This text is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate-level students enrolled in the inorganic chemistry course. The text may also be suitable for biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, and other professionals who wish to learn more about this subject are.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

Inorganic Chemistry
James E. House, Illinois Wesleyan University and Illinois State University, USA

Inorganic chemistry is a broad, rapidly developing field that includes theoretical, physical, and synthetic topics. If organic chemistry is defined as the chemistry of hydrocarbon compounds and their derivatives, then inorganic chemistry can be described as the chemistry of “everything else.” This includes all of the remaining elements in the periodic table as well as carbon, which plays a major role in many inorganic compounds.

Written for a one-semester inorganic chemistry course, this textbook provides essential information for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students and for individuals pursuing self-study. The author presents the major areas of inorganic chemistry in a clear, concise manner and incorporates pedagogy that reflects his extensive experience teaching the course.

· Concise coverage maximizes student understanding, and extensive visuals—including original figures and tables—show the broad applicability of important principles.
· The book features a logical organization with five major sections: atomic and molecular structure, condensed phases, solution chemistry, chemistry of the elements, and chemistry of coordination compounds.
· Students can review and retain the material through the use of chapter introductions, references for further study, and end-of-chapter questions and problems.
