Introduction to Modern Inorganic Chemistry, 6th edition

This popular and comprehensive textbook provides all the basic information on inorganic chemistry that the undergraduate needs to know. It begins by explaining the electronic structure and properties of the atoms, and develops the principles of covalent and polyatomic covalent molecules, the solid state, and solution chemistry. Further on in the book, the general properties of the periodic table are studied along with specific elements and groups such as hydrogen, the 's' elements, the lanthanides, the actinides, the transition metals, and the 'p' block. This edition has a completely new layout including revised artwork, case study boxes, technical notes and examples. All of the problems have been revised and include notes added to help students with solutions or approaches.
