Experimental Inorganic/Physical Chemistry: An Investigative, Integrated Approach to Practical Project Work (Horwood Series in Chemical Science)

This unusually extensive overview combines instrumental and radiochemical techniques with qualitative and quantitative (volumetric and gravimetric) analyses, and also with preparation of compounds, thereby strengthening analytical and preparative skills. "This comprehensive book combines all instrumental and radiochemical techniques with qualitative and quantitative (volumetric and gravimetric) analyses, and also with preparation of compounds. This strengthens both analytical and preparative skills. All main elements and groups of the periodic table are covered, and there is emphasis on the transition metals whose chemisty is colourful, varied and rich. Project investigative work, now an important aspect of modern undergraduate chemistry courses, is highlighted. This is an ideal practical manual for undergraduates reading chemistry. HND and HNC (Higher National Diploma and Certificate) students and their tutors will find useful ideas for fresh projects and tested experiments, and assignment work." "Readership: All chemistry undergraduates reading for university degrees or Higher National Diploma (HND) and Higher National Certificate (HNC) courses. Teachers and tutors in higher education colleges and sixth form colleges."--Jacket This extensive overview combines both instrumental and radiochemical techniques with qualitative and quantitative (volumetric and gravimetric) analyses, and also with preparation of compounds, thereby strengthening analytical and preparative skills.

Scientific and industrial applications of delta functions to signal processing are widespread and relevant. The book deals with generalised functions in a simple and straightforward way, making a difficult subject readily accessible to a broad audience of scientists and engineers, and serves as preparation for the study of more advanced treatises." "Readership: Applied mathematicians, electrical and mechanical engineers, physicists reading for first and higher degrees; and professional workers in those disciplines."--BOOK JACKET Good, safe laboratory practice; Techniques; The s block metals; Boron and aluminium; The carbon group; The nitrogen group; The sulphur group; The halogens; Titanium; Vanadium; Chromium; Manganese; Iron; Cobalt; Nickel; The coinage metals; The zinc group; Radiochemical, nuclear and other experiments; Appendices.
