There stiU is one aspect of phase chemistry that we have not yet addressed. That is the case where more than one solid phase exists. The basic properties of a solid include two factors, namely composition and structure. We will address structures of solids in the next chapter. The composition of solids is one where the individual constituents will vary if the solid is heterogenous. That is, the two types of inorganic solids vary according to whether they are homogeneous or heterogeneous. This is shown in the following ...

The distribution of componentsof binary solid solutions over the solid phase and the aqueous phase has been studied for a number of systems. Table I contains a summary of some of these systems with references. This literature review is not complete more data are available especially for rare earth and actinide compounds, which primarily obey type I Equations to a good approximation. In the following sections, the theory above will be applied to some special systems which are relevant to the fields of analytical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, mineralogy, oceanography and biominerals. 

All these advances have resulted not only in increases in resolution but have also alleviated the detection problems to a considerable extent. As a result, the last decade has seen a dramatic growth in 15N- and 170-NMR spectroscopy as a versatile method for studying molecular structure, both in isotropic (liquid) and anisotropic (solid) phases. Studies at a natural abundance level of the nucleides are now commonplace. The scope of chemical applications extends from inorganic, organometallic and organic chemistry to biochemistry and molecular biology, and includes the study of reactive intermediates, biopolymers and enzyme-inhibitor complexes. 

Similar to inorganic components, solid organic matter (SOM) plays a significant role in affecting the chemistry of solid phase surfaces. Humus and SOM can be considered as synonyms, and include the total organic compounds in solid... 

In summary, in addition to allowing simple calculations of the energetics of ionic compounds, the Bom-Haber cycle provides insight into the energetic factors operating. Furthermore, it is an excellent example of the application of thermodynamic methods to inorganic chemistry and serves as a model for other, similar calculations not only for solids, but also for reactions in solution and in the gas phase. 

It is thus impossible in a single chapter to do more than scratch the surface of inorganic chemistry Structure, reactivity, catalysis, thermodynamic stability, symmetry, experimental techniques gas-phase, solution, and solid-state chemistry," they are all part of the process. However, it is hoped that some idea erf the scope of the subject may have been formed. The following chapters in this book attempt to provide the reader with sufficient basic knowledge of the structure and reactivity of inorganic systems to ensure a more comprehensive understanding.11... 

To determine the composition of bimetallic alkoxides formed via complex formation in solution and in the solid phase and to estimate their stability, we have applied physicochemical analysis — the investigation of the solubility isotherms in the systems M(OR)m- M (OR)n - L (solvent alcohol, ether, hydrocarbon, etc.). This method, common for the studies ofthe interaction of inorganic salts in water solutions, turned out to be rather fruitful in the chemistry of alkoxides. It permitted the study of the interaction ofthe components... 

Generally, solution-based approaches for the generation of inorganic split and pool libraries have substantial advantages over approaches where solid phases are introduced as chemical sources during the different synthetic steps. Solution chemistry offers, potentially, a wide range of synthetic opportunities that can be exploited not only for the purpose of parallel synthesis but also for synthetic steps for Split Pool library creation. 

Over the past decade, Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) has evolved into what is now one of the major approaches in quantum chemistry.1-20 It is routinely applied to various problems concerning, among other matters, chemical structure and reactivity in such diverse fields as organic, organometallic, and inorganic chemistry, covering the gas and condensed phases as well as the solid state. What is it that makes Kohn-Sham DFT so attractive Certainly, an important reason is that it represents a first-principles... 

Physical inorganic chemistry is an enormous area of science. In the broadest sense, it comprises experimental and theoretical approaches to the thermodynamics, kinetics, and structure of inorganic compounds and their chemical transformations in solid, gas, and liquid phases. When I accepted the challenge to edit a book on this broad topic, it was clear that only a small portion of the field could be covered in a project of manageable size. The result is a text that focuses on mechanistic aspects of inorganic chemistry in solution, similar to the frequent association of physical organic chemistry with organic mechanisms. 

Organoindium substances are important, especially for the production of materials by metal-organic chemical vapor-phase deposition (MOCVD). This technique involves the thermal decomposition of mixtures of an organoindium compound and a compound such as phosphine (PH3), leading to the deposition of ordered layers of InP. The resulting compound can be used in the formation of semiconductors and solid-state optical devices (similar to silicon), see also Inorganic Chemistry. 

The potential application of SCWO to a number of wastes is hindered by interferences arising from inorganic chemistry (i.e., corrosion) and phase separations, particularly deposition of solids on reactor system components. Other notable interferences come from excess heat generated by the treatment of high-fuel-content waste and formation of tar when the system is oxygen starved.
