The quick and painless way to master inorganic chemistry
Inorganic chemistry can be an intimidating subject, but Inorganic Chemistry For Dummies makes it a little less daunting. Whether you're currently enrolled in an inorganic chemistry class, or you have a background in chemistry and want to expand your knowledge, this book provides an approachable, hands-on guide that helps make sense of some of the most difficult concepts. From the periodic table to nanotechnology and everything in between, you get a more thorough understanding of key theories and concepts.
- Inorganic Chemistry 101 ? get an easy-to-understand intro to inorganic chemistry, from atoms and oxidation to nuclear chemistry and acid base chemistry
- Bond, chemical bond ? discover the various ways atoms can bond with one another, like covalent bonding and ionic and metallic bonding
- It's elemental ? dive into easily digestible chapters that break down and make sense of the elements of the periodic table and what they contribute to inorganic chemistry
- Live in a materials world ? find out how inorganic chemistry became a modern science and the many ways it's contributed to the technology revolution and the modern world we live in
Open the book and find:
- The scoop on chemical bonding
- Key groups in the periodic table
- The lowdown on atomic structure and periodic trends
- Molecular symmetry and group theory
- An overview of nanotechnology today
- Inorganic chemistry experiments you can try at home
- Ten of the most important Nobel Prizes that were awarded to chemists
Learn to:
- Grasp difficult concepts with ease
- Make sense of inorganic and organometallic compounds
- Score high in your inorganic chemistry course
