This book is quite useful as a complement and reference to any undergraduate inorganic chemistry course. I found this book especially helpful for the discussions concerning point groups and symmetry operation which can be challenging to learn and yet are made easy by the great quantity and quality of the images used in the book.

واقعا کتاب عالی بود...محبوب ترین کتاب شیمی معدنی...با شکل های فوق العاده عالی...نکات مهمش خوب و به درد بخور هستن و سلف استادی هاش هم واقعا به جا هستن و خلاقیت دانش آموز و دانشجو رو بالا میبره چون برای حلشون ایده های کاربردی باید زد...5 ستاره هم کمشه واقعا

Inorganic Chemistry"Catherine E. Housecroft and Alan G. Sharpe" This book has established itself as a leading textbook in the subject by offering a fresh and exciting approach to the teaching of modern inorganic chemistry. It gives a clear introduction to key principles with strong coverage of descriptive chemistry of the elements. Special selected topics chapters are included, covering inorganic kinetics and mechanism, catalysis, solid state chemistry and bioinorganic chemistry. A new full-colour text design and three-dimensional illustrations bring inorganic chemistry to life. Topic boxes have been used extensively throughout the book to relate the chemistry described in the text to everyday life, the chemical industry, environmental issues and legislation, and natural resources. Teaching aids throughout the text have been carefully designed to help students learn effectively. The many worked examples take students through each calculation or exercise step by step, and are followed by related self-study exercises tackling similar problems with answers to help develop their confidence. In addition, end-of-chapter problems reinforce learning and develop subject knowledge and skills. Definitions boxes and end-of-chapter checklists provide excellent revision aids, while further reading suggestions, from topical articles to recent literature papers, will encourage students to explore topics in more depth. New to this edition Many more self-study exercises have been introduced throughout the book with the aim of making stronger connections between descriptive chemistry and underlying principles. Additional 'overview problems' have been addedto the end-of-chapter problem sets. The descriptive chemistry has been updated, with many new results from the literature being included. Chapter 4 Bonding in polyatomic molecules, has been rewritten with greater emphasis on the use of group theory for the derivation of ligand group orbitals and orbital symmetry labels. There is more coverage of supercritical fluids and 'green' chemistry. The new full-colour text design enhances the presentation of the many molecular structures and 3-D images. Supporting this edition Companion website featuring multiple-choice questions and rotatable 3-D molecular structures, available at "www.rearsoned.co.uk/housecroft," For full information, including details of lecturer material, see the Contents list inside the book. ASolutions Manual, written by Catherine E. Housecroft, with detailed solutions to all end-of-chapter problems within the text is available for purchase separately ISBN 0131 39926 8. "Catherine E. Housecroft" is Professor of Chemistry at the University of Basel, Switzerland. She is the author of a number of textbooks and has extensive teaching experience in the UK, Switzerland, South Africa and the USA. "Alan G. Sharpe" is a Fellow of Jesus College, University of Cambridge, UK and has had many years of experience teaching inorganic chemistry to undergraduates

Useless piece of shit

[IMPERIVM · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good enough text for senior-level inorganic chemistry, with wave equation connections.
