The first chapter explains classical concepts in chemistry that occur in nature such as atomic and molecular structures, chemical bonding and reactions, states of matter, phase transitions, and radioactivity. Subsequent chapters focus on the chemistry relating to the geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere including the chemical aspects of soil, water, and air pollution, respectively. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChemistry for Environmental and Earth Sciences\u003c\/b\u003e uses worked examples and case studies drawn from current applications along with clear diagrams and concise explanations to illustrate the relevance of chemistry to geosciences. In-text and end-of-chapter questions with complete solutions also help students gain confidence in applying concepts from this book towards solving current, real-world problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Catherine Vanessa Anne Duke,Craig Denver Williams\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138424358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138424357\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Catherine Vanessa Anne Duke","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48799215452415,"sku":"9781138424357","price":265.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chemistry-for-environmental-and-earth-catherine-vanessa-anne-duke-9781138424357","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
