Description for Models for Bonding in Chemistry
Paperback. Any successful theory of bonding in chemistry should explain in the easiest way why atoms are bonded in molecules or not, the structure and shape of molecules in space and how molecules interact in long range. Num Pages: 232 pages, black & white line drawings, black & white tables, figures. BIC Classification: PNR. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 228 x 154 x 13. Weight in Grams: 344.
A readable little book assisting the student in understanding, in a nonmathematical way, the essentials of the different bonds occurring in chemistry. Starting with a short, self-contained,introduction, Chapter 1 presents the essential elements of the variation approach to either total or second-order molecular energies, the system of atomic units (au) necessary to simplify all mathematical expressions, and an introductory description of the electron distribution in molecules. Using mostly 2x2 Hückel secular equations, Chapter 2, by far the largest part of the book because of the many implications of the chemical bond, introduces a model of bonding in homonuclear and heteronuclear ...

Reviews for Models for Bonding in Chemistry
"In summary, although this book has one foot in the past and the other as well, it serves as a useful collection of case studies in standard models of short and long range interactions." (Chemistry World, 18 February 2011)
