Satya Prakash S Modern Inorganic Chemistry

Satya Prakash's Modern Inorganic Chemistry is a treatise on the chemistry of elements on the basis of latest theories of Chemistry. Initial chapters are devoted to the study of fundamentals of Chemistry such as structure of atom, periodic classification of elements, chemical bonding and radioactivity, to name a few. It further graduates to complex discussions not only on extraction, properties and uses of the elements but also on preparation, properties, uses and structure of their important compounds. Chemistry of elements and their compounds have been explained on the basis of their position in the long form of periodic table and their electronic configurations/structures. Special emphasis has been put on the discussion of the correction between the structure and properties of elements/ compound. The book caters to the requirements of Bachelor in Science (Pass) courses. With detailed discussion on several advanced topics, the students of Bachelor in Science (Honours) and Masters in Science would also find it extremely useful.

Advanced Inorganic Chemistry - Volume I is a concise book on basic concepts of inorganic chemistry. It acquaints the students with the basic principles of chemistry and further dwells into the chemistry of main group elements and their compounds. It primarily caters to the undergraduate courses (Pass and Honours) offered in Indian universities.

Advanced Inorganic Chemistry - Volume II is a concise book on basic concepts of inorganic chemistry. Beginning with Coordination Chemistry, it presents a systematic treatment of all Transition and Inner-Transition chemical elements and their compounds according to the periodic table. Special topics such as Pollution and its adverse effects, chromatography, use of metal ions in biological systems, to name a few, are discussed to provide additional relevant information to the students. It primarily caters to the undergraduate courses (Pass and Honours) offered in Indian universities.
