{"product_id":"heavier-d-block-metals-the","title":"Heavier d-Block Metals, The","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 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 redox\n\u003cbr\u003eproperties.  Chapter 4 surveys structure: the range of coordination numbers shown by second and third row metals is often a topic for discussion in University courses.\n\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 5 looks at electronic spectra and magnetic properties, making comparisons with the first row the main objective of the chapter. Detailed mathematical treatments are not given.  Chapter 6 considers metal-metal bonding, and the classes of compound that contain triple and quadruple bonds; the role of bridging ligands is introduced.  Chapter 7 looks at selected clusters with a pi donar ligands (e.g. metal halo species) in which\n\u003cbr\u003emetal-metal bonding is important.  Chapter 8 introduces the area of polyoxometallates, closing with a short discussion of the wide range of applications.  The book\n\u003cbr\u003econtains many references to encourage wider reading by the student; in addition to textbooks of relevance, the author has included many recent literature citations, and a section called \"Metals in Action\" which gives citations which show the heavier metals at work in, for example, catalytic converters and molecular wires.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43934994694382,"sku":"9780198501039","price":49.72,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780198501039.jpg?v=1706223964","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/heavier-d-block-metals-the","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
