Features: This book is one of the "Chemistry Core Course Series Textbooks" from Hunan University. This series of textbooks addresses the shortcomings of the original chemistry foundation course textbooks, such as excessive repetition and an unreasonable course sequence, by prioritizing chemical principles and establishing the chemistry foundation courses on the theoretical basis of understanding. It constructs a new curriculum system. The book consists of 10 chapters, including Quantum Mechanics Basics, Atomic Structure and Properties, Structure of Diatomic Molecules, Molecular Symmetry, Structure of Polyatomic Molecules, Structure of Conjugated Molecules, Electromagnetic Properties and Intermolecular Forces of Molecules, Structure of Coordination Compounds and Cluster Atoms, Experimental Research on Molecular Structure, and Crystal Structure. Each chapter begins with an outline of the content, followed by a summary and exercises. Additionally, some interesting reading materials and the thought methods of scientists have been briefly compiled to maximize the readers' knowledge level.
