This set of
complete notes is aimed at giving in-depth coverage of foundational concepts in
chemistry for students. It covers the basics in chemistry, laboratory
techniques, and the importance of accurate measurement. The notes include
matter, gases, atomic and nuclear chemistry, electronic structure, and
periodicity. They contain a detailed discussion about bonding and molecular
geometry, intermolecular forces, stoichiometry, and chemical reactions. It
further expands on the topics of thermochemistry, chemical kinetics, and
equilibrium in relation to acids, bases, and oxidation-reduction reactions. In
other words, these notes would be very helpful for first-time chemistry students
since they can explain concepts clearly in an easy-to-follow, step-by-step
manner with ample examples and practical application in solving problems.
Dmitri Mendeleev's The
Principles of Chemistry is a classic that laid the foundation for the periodic
table. The book is a detailed discussion of water and its compounds, hydrogen
and oxygen, and their saline combinations. It includes Dalton's law, properties
of gases, and atomic theory in the discussion of the chemistry of elements and
their compounds. It is also interesting for its discussion of atomic weights of
elements and how to arrange the periodic table-the work of Mendeleev. The book
would serve well for the reader trying to understand the very earliest stages of
modern chemistry with contributions that have shaped this particular field of
science today.
