Description
Chemical Reactions Happen is a comprehensive guide to understanding the fundamental principles of chemistry. By exploring the key concepts and ideas that underpin chemical processes, this book provides readers with a unified approach to the subject, avoiding traditional divisions between physical, inorganic, and organic chemistry. The text delves into the essential topics that explain how chemical reactions occur, including the bonding in molecules, molecular interactions, and the factors that determine whether an interaction is favourable or not. A clear and coordinated presentation of these topics, from quantum mechanics to thermodynamics and the "curly arrows", provides a deeper understanding of chemical reactions and their underlying mechanisms. This book offers a structured and logical approach to grasping the complexities of chemical reactions, making it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to develop a thorough understanding of the subject.
