Ideal for one semester courses at the advanced undergraduate or graduate level, the second edition of Reaction Mechanisms of Inorganic and Organometallic Systems helps students develop both an appreciation of and skepticism about mechanistic studies. This new edition simplifies the first two chapters, which concentrate on the real world of collecting and interpreting kinetic data, to make them easily understandable to students with minimal exposure to the basics of kinetics. Subsequent chapters cover ligand substitution mechanisms, stereochemical change and fluxional processes, mechanisms of organometallic reactions, electron transfer reactions, inorganic and organometallic photochemistry, selected bioinorganic systems, and experimental methods. The second edition adds sections on the numerical solution of differential equations; the isomerization of square planar systems; the aqueous and bioinorganic chemistry of nitric oxide; and a new chapter on experimental methods. Reaction Mechanisms of Inorganic and Organometallic Systems also offers unique coverage of several topics, including extensive information on solvent exchange reactions; mechanistic interpretation of activation volumes; application of orbital symmetry rules to fluxional organometallic systems; C-H bond activation mechanisms; intervalence electron transfer and its relationship to bridged electron transfer; and flash photolysis applications in photochemistry. The text includes over 900 references to original literature (updated through 1996) and provides sample problems for each chapter.
This new edition introduces more problem-solving strategies and new conceptual and challenge problems. Also, each Chapter Review has been enhanced with Learning Goals to reinforce the mastery of concepts for students.
This laboratory manual contains 42 experiments for the standard sequence of topics in general, organic, and biological chemistry.
The book guides students through basic chemistry problem solving with engaging visuals and a focus on developing the math skills necessary to be successful in the course.

Essential Laboratory Manual for General, Organic and Biological Chemistry
The main objective in writing this text is to make the study of chemistry an engaging and a positive experience for students by relating the structure and behaviour of matter to real life.
The eText pages look exactly like the printed text, and include powerful interactive and customization functions. This is the product access code card for MasteringChemistry with Pearson eText and does not include the actual bound book.
Health, Environmental, and Green Chemistry Notes throughout the text relate chemistry chapters to real-life topics in health, the environment, and medicine that are interesting and motivating to students.
