Chemical Bonding

The 1980 edition of DeKock and Gray's Chemical Structure and Bonding, moving from atomic structure through valence bond, hybrid orbital and molecular orbital descriptions of diatomic and polyatomic molecules to transition-metal complexes and bonding in solids, with problems and answers.

BookPaid

The Nature of the Chemical Bond

Third edition (1960) of Linus Pauling's landmark monograph on structural chemistry, presenting resonance, hybrid orbitals, electronegativity, covalent and ionic radii, and hydrogen bonding, and showing how valence-bond ideas explain the structures of molecules, complexes, metals and crystals.
