Reactions in Solution: An Applied Analytical Approach / Edition 1

by Bernard Trémillon

Overview

This book provides the means of mastering the use of reactions in a range of solvents (aqueous, non-aqueous, molecular organic and inorganic, ionized molten salts). It indicates how to optimize these processes and continues by discussing the possibilities of large scale exploitation of these techniques (up to industrial processes), notably in the field of extractive metallurgy. In addition, detailed characteristics of electrochemical phenomena are presented.

Editorial Reviews

Analyzes the theory and methodology behind practical problems in solution chemistry so that the reader can successfully design chemical methods and predict the required conditions for such methods. Part one describes the ways of obtaining selective effects through the use of competing reactions in aqueous media. Part two investigates how modifications of chemical reactivity of solutes are produced by using non-aqueous solvents. Particular consideration is given to ionized molten salts and molecular organic and inorganic solvents. The work is elucidated by numerous examples provided in context, as well as nearly 200 problems at the end of the book. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
