Chemical Bond in Inorganic Chemistry - The Bond Valence Model

Zusatztext Neatly crystallizes concepts! precisely defines these concepts and brings to the fore many phenomena that can be described by the bond-valence model. Informationen zum Autor David Brown is Professor Emeritus at the Department of Physics and Astronomy, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Klappentext This book shows how chemical properties arise naturally from the conflict between the constraints of chemistry and those of three-dimensional space. Accessible to anyone with secondary school knowledge of chemistry and physics, the bond valence model is widely used for analysing and modelling the structures and properties of solids and liquids.
