Summary

This book addresses the chemistry of the second and third row d-block metals, assuming a knowledge of the chemistry of the first row metals. Chapter 1 looks at the metals and summarizes occurrence, physical properties and uses. Chapter 2 considers periodic trends in properties. Chapter 3 considers aqueous solution chemistry, species present (with comparisons of the first row metal ions) and redoxproperties. Chapter 4 surveys structure: the range of coordination numbers shown by second and…

Critics Review

This slender book is aimed at undergraduate students who have just been introduced to the inorganic and coordination chemistry of the second and third row d-block metals. It is carefully structured, clearly written, well illustrated, and provides up-to-date references from current literature…providing a much-needed introduction to the underlying chemistry of the heavier d-block metals, while touching a wide range of topics. It should be of great benefit toall with an interest in the heavier d-block metals./Alvin A. Holder/Chemistry in Britain July.provides a good introduction to the descriptive chemistry./Andrea Sella/Oxford Chemistry Primers No 73.
