Theories of Bonding in Complex Compounds

  • Chapter
Complexes and First-Row Transition Elements

Part of the book series: A Macmillan Chemistry Text

We must first consider elementary magnetism before the bonding theories are introduced. A more detailed account of the magnetic properties of transition metal ions will be met in chapter 7.
