Features: This book is a revision based on the first edition of Inorganic Chemistry, consisting of 23 chapters divided into two volumes. The second edition retains the characteristics of the first edition, with no changes to the overall chapter structure, but with more substantial additions, deletions, and adjustments to the specific content, aiming to keep the textbook up-to-date with the times. The first volume covers the principles, including 11 chapters on the aggregation state of matter, fundamental principles of chemical thermodynamics, reaction rates, chemical equilibrium, the four major types of reactions and equilibrium, atomic structure, and chemical bonds and molecular structures. The second volume focuses on element chemistry, with 12 chapters that emphasize the introduction of the properties, reactions, and applications of important elements and compounds, as well as the relationship between certain properties and structures. To implement the sustainable development strategy—a cornerstone of human progress—so that humanity can survive better, improve living quality, and ensure survival safety, relevant content such as environmental chemistry and bioinorganic chemistry has been added to the element chemistry chapters.
