Download or read book Fundamentals of Structural Chemistry written by Gong-du Zhou and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1993 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on two main topics in fundamental structural chemistry: the properties of chemical bonding derived from the behavior of the microscopic particles and their wave functions, and the three-dimensional molecular and crystal structures. The principle that ?structure determines properties and properties reflect structures? is clearly demonstrated. This book emphasizes practical examples linking structure with properties and applications which provide invaluable insight for students, thus stimulating their mind to deal with problems in the topics concerned.
