Summary

Inorganic chemistry is a branch of chemistry that is concerned with the synthesis of inorganic and organometallic compounds, and their behavior. Oxides, carbonates, halides and sulfates are important classes of inorganic compounds. Some common examples are aluminium sulfate, ammonia, ammonium sulfate, ammonium nitrate, etc. Inorganic compounds are generally characterized by poor electrical conductivity, high melting points and ease of crystallization. The understanding of inorganic chemistry is crucial for application in all aspects of catalysis, coatings, surfactants, materials science, fuels and agriculture. The subdivisions of inorganic chemistry are cluster chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry and organometallic chemistry. Active research is being done in these fields with the objective of developing new catalysts, superconductors, etc. This book traces the progress in the field of inorganic chemistry and highlights some of its key concepts and applications. It includes some of the vital pieces of work being conducted across the world, on various topics related to synthesis, analysis and applications of inorganic compounds. The book is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area as well as for experts.
