Describes the uses, dangers, and physical characteristics of nonmetals, and discusses how they relate to other elements in the periodic table.

Provides new developments in the research of nonmetals, including where they came from, how they fit into our current technological society, and where they may lead us.

This title introduces the reader to the properties of different materials. Find out how metals are extracted, learn about different refining techniques and discover how metals might be used in the future.

The current textbook is an excellent inroduction to the chemistry of the non-metallic elements. The book begins by reviewing the key theoretical concepts of chemical bonding and the properties of different bonding types. Subsequent chapters are focused on reactions, structures and applications of the non-metallic compounds. Combining careful pedagogy and clear writing style, the textbook is a must-have for students studying inorganic chemistry.

Engineers who need to have a better understanding of chemistry will benefit from this accessible book. It places a stronger emphasis on outcomes assessment, which is the driving force for many of the new features. Each section focuses on the development and assessment of one or two specific objectives. Within each section, a specific objective is included, an anticipatory set to orient the reader, content discussion from established authors, and guided practice problems for relevant objectives. These features are followed by a set of independent practice problems. The expanded Making it Real feature showcases topics of current interest relating to the subject at hand such as chemical forensics and more medical related topics. Numerous worked examples in the text now include Analysis and Synthesis sections, which allow engineers to explore concepts in greater depth, and discuss outside relevance.

Presents the structure, uses, and origins of some of the most common nonmetallic elements.
