Chemical kinetics from molecular structure to chemical reactivity second edition is written for both the specialist in the field and upper undergraduate and graduate level chemistry students it bridges the gap between the two with a path that leads the reader from phenomenological approach to rates of chemical reactions and then to the state of the art calculation of the rate constants of the most prevalent reactions. Chemical kinetics from molecular structure to chemical reactivity ebook arnaut luis burrows hugh amazonin kindle store. Chemical kinetics bridges the gap between beginner and specialist with a path that leads the reader from the phenomenological approach to the rates of chemical reactions to the state of the art calculation of the rate constants of the most prevalent reactions atom transfers catalysis proton transfers substitution reactions energy transfers and electron transfers. But chemical kinetics is more about structure and reactivity than numbers and calculations a great emphasis in the clarity of the concepts is achieved by illustrating all the theories and mechanisms with recent examples some of them described with sufficient detail and simplicity to be used in general chemistry and lab courses
