Inorganic chemistry deals with synthesis and behaviour of inorganic and organometallic compounds. It has applications in every aspect of the chemical industry, including catalysis, materials science, pigments, surfactants, coatings, medications, fuels, and agriculture. Inorganic elements and Metal ions are important to various biological processes. Alkali & Alkaline earth metals are plays vital role as metalloenzymes/ metalloproteins, they triggers cellular response. Like, Cytochrome are electron transporting protein pigments concerned with cell respiration that contain an iron-containing...

Molybdenum is a transition metal in Group 6 of the Periodic Table between chromium and tungsten. Although molybdenum is sometimes described as a 'heavy metal' its properties are very different from those of the typical heavy metals, mercury, thallium and lead. It is much less toxic than these and other heavy metals. Its low toxicity makes molybdenum an attractive substitute for more toxic materials. Molybdenum is the first of the transition metals to have an extensive sulfur chemistry shown, for example, having as its principal ore molybdenum disulfide, MoS2, its binding by sulfur ligands in...

The melting point of tungsten is the highest among all metallic elements, and its density (19.3 g / cm³) is very high, close to gold. The hardness of tungsten is also very high, and the hardness of tungsten carbide is close to that of the diamond. In addition, tungsten has good electrical conductivity, resonance, small expansion coefficient, and other characteristics, so it is widely used in the industry and our daily life. The present book deals with the history, properties, uses and application of metalloenzymes.
