The Principles of Chemistry

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.

An Introduction to Chemistry by Mark Bishop

This note is just right for one beginning to embark on his journey in chemistry. The coverage includes such wide-ranging topics as structure of matter, chemical elements, and chemical compounds. Major areas include introduction to chemical reactions, acids and bases, oxidation-reduction reactions, and energy changes in the reactions. Further explained, the note is to define unit conversions, chemical calculations, and modern atomic theory through molecular structure and solution dynamics, besides introducing organic chemistry, biochemistry, and nuclear chemistry for a broad basis. The note is helpful because it provides a foundational outline for students taking up the general chemistry courses.

Lecture Notes Chemistry by Dr. Monalisa Mohapatra

Lecture Notes Chemistry by Dr. Monalisa Mohapatra

Dr. Monalisa Mohapatra's notes deal with advanced topics of chemistry, such as dilute solutions, homogeneous equilibrium, chemical kinetics, and thermodynamics. The notes also discuss the second law of thermodynamics and help the students understand the fundamental principles that govern energy exchanges in chemical reactions. The resource further introduces the students to thermochemistry, where it discusses the flow of heat and energy during chemical reactions. It is excellent for intermediate to advanced students, making it clear how different chemical processes relate to one another and the thermodynamic principles underlying them. This makes this the solid backbone for those pursuing more in-depth studies in chemistry.
