This work discusses the formation and nature of multiple bonds between metal atoms, focusing on how metals can form double, triple, or higher-order bonds. It explores the electronic structure, bonding mechanisms, and the role of d-orbitals in stabilizing these interactions. The book provides foundational knowledge and research insights into metal–metal bonding, which is important in inorganic…
“The underlying philosophy is that students learn inorganic chemistry best if there is a primary emphasis on facts as a basis for understanding important principles. The third edition should be the text of choice for a sophomore‑junior level inorganic chemistry course for those instructors who want an essentially descriptive approach to the subject with an emphasis on periodicity, reactivit…
A classic textbook introducing the principles of group theory and its applications in chemistry. This third edition includes more detailed discussions on molecular symmetry and its implications in spectroscopy, bonding, and molecular orbitals.
