Inorganic and Physical Chemistry (CH1402)

A brief overview of the different types of structural isomers in coordination chemistry (ionisation, solvent, coordination and linkage). Examples of each type are given. Perfect for Advanced Highers, A-levels and University.

A brief overview on finding oxidation states of ligands. A table of general ligands and their charges is given. This is used to find the oxidation states of a transition metal in a complex. Perfect for Advanced higher, A-level and University chemistry.

Shapes of complex molecules. Ligands and metal complex geometries. An overview of the different types of geometries for each number of ligands attached to a central metal atom. Examples and diagrams are given to help visualise the complexes. Useful for Higher chemistry, although not needed. Mainly for use of students studying Advanced Higher, A-level and University inorganic chemistry.

Small summary sheet explaining the different types of ligands and their bonding. Explains how to write and interpret the formula of ligands. Examples of each type of ligand are also given. Perfect for Advanced higher and A - level Chemistry as well as 1st year university!

A clear overview on the effect of geometric isomers on both square planar and octahedral geometries. Diagrams are used to help visualise how these isomers will look. Cis, Trans, Mer and Fac isomers are explained. Perfect for Advanced Higher, A-Level and University chemistry.
