More about the book
Now in its fifth edition, this textbook offers an engaging and comprehensive introduction to core physical-inorganic principles. It presents the descriptive chemistry of the elements and highlights the significance of inorganic chemistry in everyday life. Enhanced with stunning full-colour visuals, this edition features three-dimensional molecular and protein structures, vividly illustrating the subject matter. Updated with the latest research, it covers the extended periodic table, new methods for estimating lattice energies, and bonding classifications of organometallic compounds. A well-structured pedagogical approach guides readers through the material, encouraging critical thinking and application of key concepts in real-world contexts. Notable features include thematic boxed sections focusing on Biology, Medicine, the Environment, Applications, and Theory, which promote a practical understanding of the subject. The book also includes a variety of self-study exercises, such as worked examples, reflective questions, and end-of-chapter problems to support independent learning. Definition panels and checklists at the end of each chapter serve as valuable revision tools. Striking visuals throughout the text illustrate molecular and protein structures, further engaging students in the fascinating world of inorganic chemistry.
