Nuclear Chemistry is a board topic which has only about 100 years old. It covers the study of the structure of atoms and the interaction of particles and energies, to the use of radioactive material as an alternative energy. He is a wonderful and interesting topic which has inspired many great physicists. Nuclear chemistry affects many aspects of our lives everyday. As we shall discover in this book, radioisotopes are everywhere! They are in the air we breath the ...
Inorganic chemistry deals with the properties of over a hundred elements. These elements range from highly reactive metals, such as sodium, to noble metals, such as gold. They include the nonmetals, which range from the aggressive oxidizing agent fluorine to unreactive gases such as helium. To provide mastery and appreciation of the broad sweep of the subject, the book focuses on trends in reactivity, of the broad sweep of the subject, the book focuses on trends ...
Quantum Chemistry is the application of quantum mechanics to problems in chemistry. The fundamental methods of quantum chemistry date back to the earliest days of quantum mechanics in the earlier decades of the twentieth century. However, widespread quantitative applications have only become common practice in recent times, primarily because of the explosive developments in computer hardware and the associated achievements in the design of new and improved ...
Environmental degradation has assumed alarming dimensions today. This has made environmental management a specialized field which is beyond the scope of governments. Environment is a global issue unrelated to national boundaries. It requires a set up that is above the national concerns and of universal nature. This book highlights this fact and emphasises on the Corporate Governance of Environment. What is more is that, this work fixes the social responsibility ...
