Synopsis

Beginners in chemistry often find the terminology bewildering, and basic concepts difficult to summarize. This primer provides an alphabetical listing of concepts encountered up to a first year undergraduate inorganic chemistry course. Each entry provides more information than can be found in current chemistry dictionaries, and is written in accessible, student-friendly style. Whether using the primer to cram for exams or for quick explanations of unfamiliar topics, every chemistry student should have a copy at their desks.

From the Back Cover

The book provides a resume of essential concepts in inorganic chemistry; i.e. those required for a first-year chemistry course. The material is arranged alphabetically for ready access. The book may therefore be used for looking up unfamiliar topics or for revision of topics in preparation for examinations. The entries are longer and more complete than those which would be found in a dictionary and should form the basis of a detailed answer to an examination question. Although there are many chemistry dictionaries this book is unique in providing a detailed account of essential concepts in inorganic chemistry.
