Liu S. Conceptual Density Functional Theory...2 Vol Set 2022

Textbook in PDF format

This two-volume reference book shows how conceptual density functional theory can reconcile empirical observations within silico calculations using density functional theory, molecular orbital theory, and valence bond theory. The ability to predict properties like electronegativity, acidity/basicity, strong covalent and weak intermolecular interactions as well as chemical reactivity makes DFT directly applicable to almost all problems in applied chemistry, from synthetic chemistry to catalyst design and materials characterization.Theoretical chemists and physicists, as well as those applying theoretical calculations to empirical problems, will be able to use this book to gain unique insight into how theory intersects with experimental data in the field of qualitative computation.
