Chemical Structure and Reactivity An Integrated Approach 2nd Edition Free Download

Why do certain substances react together in the way that they do? What determines the shape of molecules? And how can we predict whether a particular reaction will happen at all? Such questions lie at the heart of chemistry – the science of understanding the composition of substances, their reactions, and properties. While often fragmented into the strands of inorganic, organic and physical chemistry, a full understanding of chemistry – and establishing answers to questions such as those above – can only be gained by seeing the subject as a single, unified whole. Chemical Structure and Reactivity: an integrated approach rises to the challenge of depicting the reality of chemistry. Offering a fresh approach to undergraduate teaching, it depicts the subject as a seamless discipline, showing how inorganic, organic and physical concepts can be blended together to achieve the common goal of understanding chemical systems.
