Originally developed as an intuitive, qualitative concept, it is today firmly based on and justifed by quantum chemistry. This book explains the history, applications and theoretical foundations of "chemical hardness". Written by R. G. Pearson, the originator of the concept, it is a clear and well-written account of the consequences that can be derived from "hardness". It also shows the links to quantum chemistry and especially density functional theory which have provided a theoretical basis for and at the same time have extended the range of applications of "chemical hardness".Acid-base chemistryPhysical & Theoretical ChemistryHILCCChemistryHILCCPhysical Sciences & MathematicsHILCCElectronic books.Acid-base chemistryPhysical & Theoretical ChemistryChemistryPhysical Sciences & Mathematics546/.24Pearson Ralph G16292PQKBBOOK9910144002203321Chemical hardness2252752UNINA
