Description

Designed for use as a supplement for students in undergraduate courses in inorganic chemistry, this text will also serve as a valuable reference for instructors of general and inorganic chemistry at the undergraduate and graduate levels. This book aims to provide a comprehensive account of the VSEPR model and its applications. The text features up-to-date treatment of the VSEPR model, and includes a comprehensive discussion of the geometry of molecules of elements from all parts of the periodic table including the transition metals. It also discusses the quantum mechanical basis for the VSEPR model.
