Coauthored by Vishakha
Monga, Paul Flowers, Klaus Theopold, William R. Robinson, and Richard Langley,
it is a fully comprehensive online resource for students and professionals in
chemical engineering who need to know the fundamental principles of inorganic
chemistry within their profession. The issues addressed include atomic
structure, chemical bonding, molecular geometry, and transition metal chemistry,
thus forming enough foundational knowledge to predict the behavior of inorganic
substances involved in the processes used in industry. Text also encompasses
coordination chemistry, electrochemistry and thermodynamics, therefore providing
readers with tools to apply concepts of inorganic chemistry to design solutions
for real engineering problems. Be it designing new materials or optimizing
industrial processes, this book is an indispensable resource for those
interested in how inorganic chemistry supports the application of chemical
engineering.

This is a lengthy PDF by Neil G. Connelly, Richard M.
Hartshorn, Ture Damhus, and Alan T. Hutton that delves very deeply into the
rules and standards governing the naming of inorganic compounds. The history and
development of chemical nomenclature form part of this document and outline the
functions and methods used to name elements, compounds, and complex ions. The
text provides detailed guidelines on nomenclature of acids, bases, salts, and
coordination complexes, including special cases such as organometallic compounds
and solid-state materials. This text is highly recommended for chemists,
educators, and students in general who aim for clear and precise systematic
naming conventions as a basis of inorganic chemistry.
