    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book summarizes the new major research findings about formation mechanism and control strategies of haze in China, including basic theories, key technologies, equipment and platforms and the applications and implementations of control technologies, in implementing the Strategic Priority Research Program (Class B) of Chinese Academy of Sciences. Different types of air pollution processes experienced by the developed countries in different stages are out-breaking simultaneously in China in the recent years and resulting a new type of “haze chemistry smog” pollution, which is different from the “London smog” and the “Los Angeles photochemical smog”. This book provides a useful reference for related researchers, engineers and policy-makers engaged in atmospheric pollution research, prevention and control in China and other countries.Table of ContentsIntroduction.- Atmospheric oxidation and secondary particle formation.- Haze Source Tracing.- Numerical Model of Atmospheric Haze.- Research and Development, Industrialization, and Application of Advanced Instruments.- Multi-Pollutant Collaborative Treatment Technology and Special Equipment of Atmospheric Haze.

    Book SynopsisInorganic chemistry is the branch of chemistry concerned with the properties and behaviour of inorganic compounds. This field covers all chemical compounds except the myriad organic compounds (compounds containing C-H bonds), which are the subjects of organic chemistry. Many inorganic compounds are salts, consisting of cations and anions joined by ionic bonding. Important classes of inorganic salts are the oxides, the carbonates, the sulphates and the halides. Many inorganic compounds are characterised by high melting points. The simplest inorganic reaction is double displacement when in mixing of two salts the ions are swapped without a change in oxidation state. This book presents and discusses current research done in the field of inorganic chemistry.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book is a synthesis of two of Hudlicky''s earlier books outlining the many unpredictable properties of fluorine and its compounds that are not analogous to the properties of any other halogens and their compounds. It is divided into two separate sections, the first presenting peculiar reactions as problems to be solved. Each reaction can be analyzed in the lab without the help of the second section, however if a solution is not easily reached, the second section provides discussion of the problems, outlining the products of the reactions and their mechanisms. Among the 105 reactions outlined are the introduction of fluorine into organic molecules, reduction and oxidation of fluorine compounds, reactions of fluorocompounds with halogens and their derivatives, nitration, acid catalyzed reactions, organometallic syntheses, and pyrolyses. The reactions are documented in the experimental material of the earlier volumes and will be important background knowledge for anyone working in organic chemistry.Trade ReviewDeals with the dissimilarities in reactions of fluorine compounds that differ from those of chlorine, bromine, and iodine. The first section merely poses 105 questions, while part two provides thorough explanations of the answers. Hudlicky (Virginia Polytechnic Institute) covers reactions of fluoro compounds with halogen derivatives, sulfur trioxide, hydrolyses, alkylations, aldol-type condensations, organometallic syntheses, nucleophilic additions, acid catalyzed additions and substitutions, and molecular rearrangement. * SciTech Book News *Table of ContentsPart I.

    Oxford University Press, USA The Heavier dBlock Metals Aspects of Inorganic and Coordination Chemistry 73 Oxford Chemistry Primers

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book addresses the chemistry of the second and third row d-block metals, assuming a knowledge of the chemistry of the first row metals. Chapter 1 looks at the metals and summarizes occurrence, physical properties and uses. Chapter 2 considers periodic trends in properties. Chapter 3 considers aqueous solution chemistry, species present (with comparisons of the first row metal ions) and redox properties. Chapter 4 surveys structure: the range of coordination numbers shown by second and third row metals is often a topic for discussion in University courses. Chapter 5 looks at electronic spectra and magnetic properties, making comparisons with the first row the main objective of the chapter. Detailed mathematical treatments are not given. Chapter 6 considers metal-metal bonding, and the classes of compound that contain triple and quadruple bonds; the role of bridging ligands is introduced. Chapter 7 looks at selected clusters with a pi donar ligands (e.g. metal halo species) in which metal-metal bonding is important. Chapter 8 introduces the area of polyoxometallates, closing with a short discussion of the wide range of applications. The book contains many references to encourage wider reading by the student; in addition to textbooks of relevance, the author has included many recent literature citations, and a section called Metals in Action which gives citations which show the heavier metals at work in, for example, catalytic converters and molecular wires.Trade ReviewThis slender book is aimed at undergraduate students who have just been introduced to the inorganic and coordination chemistry of the second and third row d-block metals. It is carefully structured, clearly written, well illustrated, and provides up-to-date references from current literature...providing a much-needed introduction to the underlying chemistry of the heavier d-block metals, while touching a wide range of topics. It should be of great benefit to all with an interest in the heavier d-block metals./Alvin A.

  • Essential Trends in Inorganic Chemistry

    Oxford University Press Essential Trends in Inorganic Chemistry

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThe growth of inorganic chemistry during the last fifty years has made it almost impossible for the student to assimilate all the factual information available. This book is designed to help the student begin to tackle this task by showing exactly how a chemist uses the Periodic Table to organize and process this mass of information. After opening with a clear description of the quantum mechanical basis of the Periodic Table, the author goes on to illustrate how a modern inorganic chemist uses the basic structure of the Periodic Table to interpret a wide range of chemical phenomena. Rather than giving the descriptive chemistries of the groups of elements, the author takes specific atomic, physical, and chemical properties and illustrates how the variations are interpreted. Thus he describes vertical trends, horizontal and diagonal trends, and then isoelectronic relationships. The latter provides a basis for developing bonding models which account for the structures and reactivities of Trade Reviewa clear layout, good diagrams and helpful margin notes and tables that explain information given in the adjacent text...The book covers a large amount of material and as such is useful not only to undergraudates, but also to postgraduates and those who teach the subject at univeristy level. I am happy to recommend this book. * Matthew Almond, Chemistry in Britain, October 1998. *Table of ContentsChapter 1 The quantum mechanical basis of the periodic table ; Chapter 2 Vertical trends ; Chapter 3 Horizontal and diagonal trends ; Chapter 4 Isoelectronic and iso-stoichiometric relationships ; Chapter 5 Transition metals (d-block elements), lanthanides and actinides (f-block elements)
