<br/><br/> Transition metals, quantitative kinetics and applied organic chemistry is one of four books in the Nelson Advanced Science (NAS) series developed by updating and reorganising the material from the Nelson Advanced Modular Science (AMS) books to align with the requirements of the Edexcel specifications from September 2000. The books will also be useful for other AS and Advanced courses. This book provides coverage of Unit 5 of the Edexcel specification.  - Introduction.
