Overview
Why do certain substances react together in the way that they do? What determines the shape of molecules? And how can we predict whether a particular reaction will happen at all?Such questions lie at the heart of chemistry - the science of understanding the composition of substances, their reactions, and properties. While often fragmented into the strands of inorganic, organic and physical chemistry, a full understanding of chemistry - and establishing answers to questionssuch as those above - can only be gained by seeing the subject as a single, unified whole.Chemical Structure and Reactivity: an integrated approach rises to the challenge of depicting the reality of chemistry. Offering a fresh approach to undergraduate teaching, it depicts the subject as a seamless discipline, showing how inorganic, organic and physical concepts can be blended togetherto achieve the common goal of understanding chemical systems.The book adopts a two-part structure allowing complete flexibility of use: a series of core concepts covered in Part 1 leads into a suite of further topics in Part 2, from which the instructor can select to match their particular course.With a lively and engaging writing style augmented throughout by purpose-drawn illustrations, and custom-developed online support, Chemical Structure and Reactivity makes taking an integrated approach in the teaching of chemistry a realistic proposition for the first time.Online Resource CentreThe Online Resource Centre to accompany Chemical Structure and Reactivity features the following resources for registered adopters of the book and their students:Registered adopters:- Figures from the book in electronic format;- Worked solutions to all end of chapter exercises- A testbank of multiple-choice questions keyed to the bookFor students:- Multimedia content, linked to the book, enabling students to investigate the concepts and phenomena presented in the book in a fully interactive way
