About the Book

"Problems in Structural Inorganic Chemistry" (2nd Edition) by Wai-Kee Li is a comprehensive collection of over 422 problems and their solutions focused on the core themes of symmetry, bonding, and structure in molecular and crystalline systems. Written for senior undergraduate and beginning graduate students, this book covers a wide array of topics such as:

• Electronic States and Configurations of Atoms and Molecules

• Introductory Quantum Chemistry

• Atomic Orbitals and Hybrid Orbitals

• Molecular Symmetry and Geometry

• Crystal Field Theory

• Molecular Orbital Theory

• Vibrational Spectroscopy

• Transition Metal Chemistry

• Bioinorganic Chemistry

The questions have been derived from examination papers and take-home assignments across several decades of teaching at senior levels. They have been refined through years of student interaction, making this book an excellent resource for mastering structural inorganic chemistry.

This book serves as a helpful supplement for various inorganic chemistry courses and can also be used alongside the Advanced Structural Inorganic Chemistry textbook, co-authored by W.-K. Li, G.-D. Zhou, and T. C. W. Mak (2008, Oxford University Press).

Perfect for students looking to improve their problem-solving skills, this text is a key asset for mastering the complexity of structural inorganic chemistry.
