This textbook provides a comprehensive and rigorous explanation of inorganic chemistry to enable undergraduate and postgraduate students to learn the subject in a clear, direct and understandable way. The text is divided into four parts. Part one on basic concepts, deals with topics such as the atom its structure, periodic table and periodic properties. The second part on chemistry of non-transitional elements, discusses the elements such as hydrogen, elements of Group 1, Group 2, Group 13, Group 14, Group 15, Group 16, Group 17 and Group 18. The third part consists of chapters on chemistry of transitional elements, such as scandium, titanium, vanadium, chromium, and so on. The final part of the book covers some special topics including organometallic compounds and bio-inorganic chemistry. The book is profusely illustrated and provides numerous chapter-end exercises for a sound understanding of the subject by the students.
