Chemistry: Questions and Answers

By Amin Elsersawi

This book helps students and readers visualize the three-dimensional atomic and molecular structures that are the basis of chemical action. An integral part of the text is to develop an explanation to hybridization which introduced to explain molecular structure when the valence bond theory failed to correctly envisage them.
Dr. Elsersawi presents the quantum theory of the electronic structure of atoms and focuses on the electronic structures and reactivity of atoms and molecules. Many questions and answers of chemical components are introduced, using molecular orbital, and hybridization of orbitals. The book has been made more informative and the subject matter has been presented in a very simple language, clear style along with a large number of fully illustrative diagrams.
Atoms, molecules, ions, chemical formulas and equations, chemical bondings, intermolecular forces, energies, electronegativity are offered to readers in effective and proven features clarity of writing and explanation.
If you are finding that Lewis dot structures are not enough for representing the atoms and molecules you are dealing with as a chemist, then this is the book for you.

Overall, this volume answers frequently asked questions and highlights the most important hybridized formulas. It has a broader range than traditional quantum chemistry books. It is a useful reference for health professionals, practicing physicists, chemists, and materials scientists.

Amin Elsersawi

Biography Amin Elsersawi is a Canadian author, engineer and by consensus a biochemist. He received his Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering with emphasis in power electronic from Bradford University, U.K in 1980. He is a professional engineer registered with the Professional Engineering Society of Ontario Canada Dr. Elsersawi is currently retired. He previously served as general director for notable power generation and distribution energy utility. Prior to that, he was a chief of electrical engineering for the Public Work and Government Services Canada. He published more than 100 papers and reports in engineering and mathematic, biology, astronomy, and chemistry. He spent more than 15 years in teaching at universities and colleges. He compiled his own celestial mechanics algorithms for the precise computation of astrophysics of planets and constellations, and other phenomena such as weak energy, dark universe, quantum radiations and lights. He presented several reports, articles and essays in chemistry and chemical engineering at several seminars and conferences. He is the author of the book Chemistry, Biology and Cancer: the Bond, the book The Atom and the Universe: Theories and Facts unfold, the book Biochemistry of Aging: Wellness and Longevity, the book The Universe and Its Creation: The probability of God and Improbability of Science, the book The Secret of Electricity, the book World of Nanobioengineering: Potential Big Ideas for the Future, and the book The Book of Intelligence and Brain Disorder: Your Brain Must Have All Forms of Intelligence: IQ, EQ, and CQ. Dr. Elsersawi and his wife, Randa, have been happily married since 1969 and have three children. First daughter, a University of Toronto graduate is a practicing Obstetrician-Gynecologist. The second daughter, a graduate in psychology from York University, and the son, a graduate in electrical engineering from Western Ontario University.

Reviews for Chemistry

[plaws595 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

The book is a good reference when it comes to ghenereal chemistry. Some of the sections appear to not be in a logical order however. There are better general chistry books out there.
