Coordination Compounds

Coordination Compounds are backbone of modern inorganic and bio-inorganic and bio-chimestry and chemical industry. In the previous Unit we learnt that transition metals form a large number of complex compounds in which the metal atoms and bound to a number of anions or neutral molecules…

The Solid State

The mostajortity of solid substances like high temperature superconductors, biocompatible plastics, silicon chips, etc, are destined to play an ever expanding role in future development of science. We are mostly surrounded by solid and we use them more often than luquid and gases. For d…
