ABSTRACT

Fully revised and expanded, the second edition of Basic Chemical Concepts and Tables is written as a quick reference to the many different concepts and ideas encountered in chemistry. The volume presents important subjects in a concise format that makes it a practical resource for any reader.

Subjects include general chemistry, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, and spectral analysis. The new edition includes updated tables that are useful for the interpretation of ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), infrared (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectroscopy (MS) spectra, and expanded sections devoted to the concept of isomers and polymer structures and includes a new chapter on nuclear chemistry. Separate chapters offer physical constants and unit measurements commonly encountered and mathematical concepts needed when reviewing or working with basic chemistry concepts.

Key features:

•        Provides chemical information in a concise format, fully illustrated with many graphs and charts, ideal for course review.

•        Supplements traditional exam review books, serving undergraduate or graduate students.

•        Provides professionals looking for a quick introduction to a topic with a comprehensive ready reference.

Graduate and undergraduate chemistry students, professionals or instructors looking to refresh their understanding of a chemistry topic will find this reference indispensable in their daily work.
