Synopses & Reviews
The latest edition of the world's most popular scientific reference features tables and reference sections on everything from the Periodic Table to the bond lengths in organometallic compounds. Featuring the latest facts and figures, the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics contains all the most frequently used data in science, including the periodic table of the elements, basic constants and units, and geophysical data.
For decades, physicists and chemists have turned to this handbook as their primary source for reliable data. Every year, material is critically evaluated, new data is added, and existing tables are updated. The 81st edition includes eight new and forty revised or updated tables. Nowhere else will you find such a useful compilation of scientific data. Don't be left behind. Your research deserves the best data available - the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics has it.
Tables new in the 81st edition:
Melting Point Index of Organic Compounds
Boiling Point Index of Organic Compounds
Electrical Conductivity of Water
Properties of Liquid Helium
Bond Length in Organometallic Compounds - filling an important gap in previous editions
Organic Magnets
Pressure-Volume-Temperature Relationship for Polymer Melts
Characteristics of Human Hearing
Tables updated in the 81st edition:
Fundamental Physical Constants - reflects the first change in these international recommendations in 14 years
Conversion Factors
The Elements - the first major revision in more than five years
Dissociation Constants of Organic Acids and Bases
Dipole Moments of Molecules in the Gas Phase
Threshold Limits for Airborne Contaminants
Synopsis
The Handbook of Chemistry and Physics has always provided a thorough range of critically evaluated data in a convenient, one-volume format that forms the world's leading source of scientific data. Now in its 82nd edition, it includes a range of new topics and tables that reflect emerging and active areas of current research. Most important among this year's revisions is a thorough update expansion of the second most heavily used section, the Table of Physical Constants of Inorganic Compounds. New topics include redox data on biochemical compounds, viscosity of carbon dioxide, interstellar molecules, and radio frequency allocations.
Synopsis
From fundamental constants to the aqueous solubility of organic compounds, from basic data in atomic physics to bond lengths in organometallic compounds, The CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics is the resource relied upon by academic institutions, research laboratories, and industries around the world. The 81st Edition of the Handbook incorporates important updates and new topics, such as Bond Lengths in Organometallic Compounds and Organic Magnets that fill important gaps in the Handbook and relate to areas of very active, present day chemical research. It also includes the new values recommended by CODATA for fundamental physical constants and conversion factors-the first revision in 14 years.
With all of these revisions, it is now more important than ever for libraries, research facilities, laboratories, and individuals to replace their older editions. And now they have a choice: the venerated print version, a CD-ROM version, or, for institutional users, an online version with even more features.
The CD-ROM and online handbooks feature All the data, all the tables, all the figures found in the venerable print version combined with the speed and efficiency of sophisticated electronic features. Users get sophisticated search capabilities, interactive tables, tables hotlinked to chemical structures, and powerful data selection tools that allow users to customize the display and export data.
