A survey of the preparations and reactions of selected representative elements and transition metals. The physical and chemical properties of each element are covered, including the occurrence of the element in nature and important compounds and their uses, including industrial processes. The course introduces transition metal complexes and includes an advanced treatment of ionic equilibria including precipitation and complex-formation reactions.
