Inorganic Chemistry

Inorganic Chemistry, Third Edition by James E. House, published by Elsevier Science on October 30, 2019, is a comprehensive resource for students studying inorganic chemistry. This edition emphasizes fundamental principles such as molecular structure, acid-base chemistry, coordination chemistry, and solid state chemistry, organized into five major themes: structure, condensed phases, solution chemistry, main group, and coordination compounds. Each chapter features narrative introductions, figures, tables, and end-of-chapter problem sets to facilitate understanding.
Readers will find a balanced exploration of theoretical and descriptive chemistry, with topics including the hard-soft interaction principle, hydrogen bond strengths, and the stability of coordination compounds. The new edition includes updates that focus on bioinorganic chemistry and introduces a chapter on nanostructures and graphene. Additionally, it incorporates more in-text worked-out examples to promote active learning, making it suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate-level students enrolled in inorganic chemistry courses. With 978 pages, this text serves as a detailed guide for those looking to deepen their knowledge in the field.
Official synopsis Publisher
Inorganic Chemistry, Third Edition, emphasizes fundamental principles, including molecular structure, acid-base chemistry, coordination chemistry, ligand field theory and solid state chemistry. The book is organized into five major themes: structure, condensed phases, solution chemistry, main group and coordination compounds, each of which is explored with a balance of topics in theoretical and descriptive chemistry. Topics covered include the hard-soft interaction principle to explain hydrogen bond strengths, the strengths of acids and bases, and the stability of coordination compounds, etc. Each chapter opens with narrative introductions and includes figures, tables and end-of-chapter problem sets.
This new edition features updates throughout, with an emphasis on bioinorganic chemistry and a new chapter on nanostructures and graphene. In addition, more in-text worked-out examples encourage active learning and prepare students for exams. This text is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate-level students enrolled in the Inorganic Chemistry course.
