MOLECULES and the Chemical Bond is about understanding Schrodinger s equation, for chemical systems.

In his famous Lectures on Physics, Richard Feynman quotes Paul Dirac on what it means to understand an equation. I understand what an equation means, said Dirac, if I have a way of figuring out the characteristics of its solutions without actually solving it. That hits the nail on the head It s precisely what Conceptual Valence Bond Theory does for Schrodinger s equation.

A physical understanding of an equation, adds Feynman, is a completely unmathematical, imprecise, and inexact thing, but absolutely necessary for a physicist. It unfolds in MCB in two stages, described by Newton as a stage of Analysis (a union of observations and inductions) and a stage of Synthesis (use of inductions, accepted as first principles, to explain observations).

The book s chief vehicle for creating an intuitive understanding of solutions of Schrodinger s equation is the world s largest and to the author s knowledge, virtually only library of line drawings of exclusive orbital models of chemical species electron density profiles.

By focussing attention on fundamental physical principles and by avoiding use of atomic orbitals and, thereby, mathematical complexities associated with Schrodinger s equation (the only source of atomic orbitals), the book s essays provide a scientifically sound, student-friendly introduction to modern valence theory.

Repetition of fundamental ideas, here and there, is intended to make individual essays understandable and interesting, each by itself, so that readers may examine them in any order, in leisurely walks, so to speak, in the big garden that is valence theory, picking bouquets to their liking. "

This unique book of real chemistry and science for children illustrates the nature of physical and chemical change using the very smallest parts of things: atoms and molecules. It encourages children, ages 5-12, along with their parents or teachers, to become active learners of science, to discover meaning not only in the ideas and definitions of others, but also (and especially) in their own world. Chapters include: Evaporating, Condensing, Dissolving, Crystallizing, Mixing, Separating, Melting, Freezing, and Reacting.

This poster features the Periodic Table with the symbol, full name and chemical details of each element. The key to the table is given, and further symbols are used to indicate whether the element is gas or liquid at room temperature. More information is organised into the topics: elements; the structure of an atom; atomic number; mass number; isotopes; relative atomic mass; electron arrangement; groups; radioactivity; the discovery of the periodic table.
