Build a strong foundation in physical-inorganic chemistry with this internationally renowned text. Inorganic Chemistry, 6th edition, Global edition, by Catherine E Housecroft and Alan G Sharpe, is a widely respected introduction to the physical-inorganic principles of chemistry. With new research, this edition introduces you to the descriptive chemistry of the elements and the role played by inorganic chemistry in our everyday lives. Its carefully developed pedagogical approach helps you engage with topics using striking visuals to consolidate your understanding. The text covers topics such as molecular symmetry and bonding in polyatomic molecules, teaching you to apply your learnt knowledge to the real world. This updated edition includes: A new chapter (Chapter 30) dedicated to the naming of inorganic compounds according to IUPAC guidelines, A new online chapter (Chapter 31) devoted to uncovering the origins of inorganic chemistry, New 3-dimensional structures linked to data in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD), A new glossary containing definitions, the origins of the names of elements and minerals, and details about chemists and physicists mentioned in the text, Chemistry has been linked to the United Nations' Sustainability Development Goals where possible, Thoroughly updated content in terms of chemical developments and statistical data, and Multiple-choice questions at the end of each chapter, with interactive answer feedback in the eTextbook.

Now in its fifth edition, Housecroft & Sharpe's Inorganic Chemistry is a well-respected and leading international textbook. This Solutions Manual accompanies the main text and provides model answers to the end-of-chapter problems, linking to relevant sections and figures in the main text as appropriate. Solutions in this manual are fully worked, making them of maximum benefit to students during in-course assessment and end-of-course examination problems. Using the Solutions Manual will reinforce learning and develop subject knowledge and skills. The solutions are referenced into the literature and diagrams are simplified to coach students in how to achieve a similar style in their own work.
