Explains the basics of inorganic chemistry with a primary emphasis on facts; then uses the student's growing factual knowledge as a foundation for discussing the important principles of periodicity in structure, bonding and reactivity.

ince the second edition of this book there has been so much published in the ? eld that Stwo points seemed clear. One was a sense that a new, up-to-date monograph was needed. The other was the reluctance of two or even three people to undertake the daunting task of covering all the ground. Our response was to call on others to help and, thus, to produce the present, multiauthored volume. Each of the contributing authors was in a position to write - thoritatively, from hands-on research experience. We are con? dent that this has led to a better book than the three of us would have produced. As...

The book begins with the rigorous mathematical basis on which all applications of group theory in chemistry rest. It develops this basis from the beginning, with careful attention to the background and training of chemists. It provides extensive drill in the recognition and classification of molecular symmetry, and then takes up, chapter by chapter, all of the principal applications of group theory in chemistry. The text is directed especially to chemists and covers the whole subject from the mathematical foundation to all of the principal applications, including crystallography. The text...

This edition contains a new introductory section, a chapter on the organic solid state and three types of end-of-chapter exercises, one of which points students to professional literature. Important new material includes a better introduction to inorganic chemistry, improved treatment of atomic orbitals and properties such as electronegativity, new approaches to the depiction of ionic structures, nomenclature for transition metal compounds, quantitative approaches to acid base chemistry, expanded and unified treatment of the periodicity in structure and reactivity among the main group...
