Description
This new title from Catherine Housecroft and Alan Sharpe offers a fresh and exciting approach to teaching modern inorganic chemistry. Inorganic Chemistry 1e gives a clear introduction to key principles with strong coverage of descriptive chemistry of the elements. Special selected topics chapters are included covering kinetics and mechanism, catalysis, solid state chemistry and bioinorganic chemistry. The attractive two-colour text and three-dimensional illustrations bring inorganic chemistry to life, with over 140 topic boxes, many covering applications of inorganic chemicals in industry, day-to-day life and the laboratory, and environmental and biological resources.
