At the most fundamental level, all of chemistry is a reflection of the ways in which electrons and nuclei interact with each other. The behaviour of electrons and nuclei are controlled by the rules of quantum mechanics - rules which are quite unlike those in the familiar world of classical mechanics, and which may at first seem quite complex. Here, the authors show how quantum mechanics can explain the properties of atoms and molecules.
This 1986 book emphasises the fundamental ideas of quantum theory as they relate to its mainstream areas such as bonding and spectroscopy; elementary ideas on the use of symmetry are also included.
In clear language, this exciting book shows how the interactions between simple substances such as salt and water ar
