Investigations in Chemistry: Experiments and Observations

EBook Description: easy-to-follow narration and close-up shots illustrate the steps in experiments and demonstrations that are a part of any core curriculum. Each program features three lessons that cover related content. Some of the experiments—too dangerous to conduct in many labs—allow teachers the advantage of illustrating processes students might not otherwise experience.

Recent Trends in Radiation Chemistry is a state-of-the-art review of the present status and future trends in the field of radiation chemistry research. It covers a broad spectrum of topics, ranging from the historical perspective, instrumentation of accelerators in the nanosecond to femtosecond region, through the use of radiation chemical methods in the study of antioxidants and nanomaterials, radiation-induced DNA damage by ionizing radiation involving both direct and indirect effects, to ultrafast events in free electron transfer, radiation-induced processes at solid?liquid interfaces and the recent work on infrared spectroscopy and radiation chemistry. The contributors to the book are world-renowned specialists. The book is unique in that it covers a wide spectrum of topics that will be of great interest to beginners as well as experts. Recent data on ultrafast phenomena from the recently established world-class laser-driven accelerators facilities in the US, France and Japan are reviewed. There has not been a significant book covering the important field of radiation chemistry for the last 5 years. This timely book, which includes highlights of recent work, will appeal not only to the specialists working in the area but also to other researchers involved in related specialties.

"Advanced Organic Chemistry: Part A: Structure and Mechanisms"

Since its original appearance in 1977, Advanced Organic Chemistry has maintained its place as the premier textbook in the field, offering broad coverage of the structure, reactivity and synthesis of organic compounds. As in the earlier editions, the text contains extensive references to both the primary and review literature and provides examples of data and reactions that illustrate and document the generalizations. While the text assumes completion of an introductory course in organic chemistry, it reviews the fundamental concepts for each topic that is discussed.

Chemistry The Molecular Science

The text has good coverage, high pedagogy, nice graphics and a solid style. The nanochemistry material is a great selling point to the engineers. The Moore text was chosen for the quality and level of writing; the level and variety of end-of-chapter problems; the emphasis on developing a conceptual understanding of atomic systems; and the integration of biochemistry, organic, and environmental topics throughout.

Chemistry Problem Solver

Intend ed for those taking General Chemistry I, II, and III. Numerous examples with step-by-step details are given under each major and minor topic. Included also are thorough sections on thermodynamics, electrochemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and nuclear chemistry.

Advances in Chemical Physics, The Role of Degenerate States in Chemistry

Few of us can any longer keep up with the flood of scientific literature, even in specialized subfields. Any attempt to do more and be broadly educated with respect to a large domain of science has the appearance of tilting at windmills. Yet the synthesis of ideas drawn from different subjects into new, powerful, general concepts is as valuable as ever, and the desire to remain educated persists in all scientists. This series, Advancesin Chemical Physics, is devoted to helping the reader obtain general information about a wide variety of topics in chemical physics, a field that we interpret very broadly. Our intent is to have experts present comprehensive analyses of subjects of interest and to encourage the expression of individual points of view. We hope that this approach to the presentation of an overview of a subject will both stimulate new research and serve as a personalized learning text for beginners in a field.

Chemistry of Tantalum and Niobium Fluoride Compounds

Electronic, optical, mechanical and medical appliances are just a few examples of modern applications that use tantalum and niobium. In Chemistry of Tantalum and Niobium Fluoride Compounds, the author draws on thirty years' experience to produce the first ever monograph to systemize and summarize the data available on tantalum and niobium fluoride compounds. This comprehensive reference source offers a rich variety of study methodology and is invaluable to researchers examining the chemistry of fluorides, as well as teachers and students in chemistry and metallurgy.

Organic Chemistry with OLC and Learning by Modeling

From its first edition through this, its sixth, "Organic Chemistry" has been designed to meet the needs of the two-semester, undergraduate organic chemistry course. This best-selling text gives students a solid understanding of organic chemistry by stressing how fundamental reaction mechanisms function and how reactions occur. With the addition of handwritten solutions, new cutting-edge molecular illustrations, updated spectroscopy coverage, seamless integration of molecular modeling exercises, and state-of-the-art multimedia tools, the 6th edition of "Organic Chemistry" clearly offers the most up-to-date approach to the study of organic chemistry.

Reviews in Computational Chemistry

Volume 6 of the successful series 'Reviews in Computational Chemistry' contains articles of interest to pharmaceutical chemists, biological chemists, chemical engineers, inorganic and organometallic chemists, synthetic organic chemists, polymer chemists, and theoretical chemists. The series is designed to help the chemistry community keep current with the many new developments in computational techniques. The writing style is refreshingly pedagogical and non-mathematical, allowing students and researchers access to computational methods outside their immediate area of expertise.

Stochastic Processes in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology

The theory of stochastic processes provides a huge arsenal of methods suitable for analyzing the influence of noise on a wide range of systems. Noise-induced, noise-supported or noise-enhanced effects sometimes offer an explanation for as yet open problems (information transmission in the nervous system and information processing in the brain, processes at the cell level, enzymatic reactions, etc.), or pave the way to novel technological applications. Noise can play a prominent role in structure formation in physics, chemistry and biology, e.g. current filaments in semiconductors, catalytic reactions on surfaces, complex dynamics of the heart, brain, or of ecosystems. The book reviews those aspects of applied stochastics addressing researchers as well as students.

Advances in Physical Organic Chemistry

The objective of the serial is to present considered reviews on the quantitative study of organic compounds and their behavior--physical organic chemistry in its broadest sense--in a manner accessible to a general readership. This thirtieth volume contains four topics on diverse subjects.
