This
online Wikibook from Penn State University provides an in-depth introduction to
inorganic chemistry, including synthesis, reactions, and properties of inorganic
compounds. It contains many areas of study, from molecular orbital theory and
acid-base chemistry to more advanced topics: redox stability, coordination
chemistry, crystal field theory, and so on. The book also describes the
properties of metals and alloys, including the structure, bonding, and
electronic characteristics. Discussions regarding superconductors,
semiconductors, and nanomaterials make this tool ideal for students and teachers
seeking a comprehensive yet accessible guide to inorganic chemistry.
This
educational note, prepared by Uttarakhand Open University, is a comprehensive
resource for MSc students studying inorganic chemistry. The topics range from
stereochemistry and bonding, metal pi-complexes, and metal clusters to various
chemical properties and behaviors of different metal and nonmetal compounds.
Organometallic chemistry is also explored, putting an emphasis on the alkali and
alkaline earth metals' role in the majority of chemical reactions. This resource
is appropriate for higher-level students in inorganic chemistry who will gain
footing in abstract concepts and applicable themes.
